It was tense.

My apologies. I couldn’t resist.

but realized it's an hour and 14". I'm very interested in time so I want to watch this later, when I finish my work for the day.

It's beautifully illustrated. Looking forward to this.

I once got a "download" and I understood how everything happens all at once. The understanding didn't last, however, and I cannot explain the insight I had then now.

Thanks for posting this.
