What I want is someone to explain time to me. For example, how can a photograph exist. What is the difference between something that happened to something that never happened as it relates to today? For a photograph to exist, wouldn`t it mean that there must be an existing past, a past that must constantly exist for that photo to remain? Say you take a photo of yourself on a polaroid...It spits out the picture and you can see what you looked like a few minutes ago. But how can that photo exist if the past is no longer in the here and now? If the past doesn`t exist then wouldn`t it be the same as if you never took a photo? Is time and space like flipping animation cards? Multiple universes being formed with every movement? Would this explain why when you come near the speed of light time slows down because you are nearer the last universe? Einstein said eventually mass will become infinite when it reaches the speed of light. Does this mean you cross over to a universe that has passed and you can go back in time? Spock Spock!! I dont know, I`ve taken too much LDS!

Think of a "reference frame" whereby events happen in a frame independent of other events.

No. There are those huge machines that come and eat up everything every little bit, (like on that Steven King t.v. movie) so you don't want to get caught in the past if you don't want those things that look like the huge computer game character that used to be so popular to come and get you. I don't know why they don't eat up photos; that's a real puzzle. (I have some they SHOULD have eaten up.)
