Why do we need to know the time in the first place? Sure, we have jobs and appointments, even now when so many of us are stuck at home, but I swear I have traveled through deserts and over mountains, strayed so far from civilization that I felt lost, at last — and on waking in dawn’s glow, my first thought was, What time is it?
What could it possibly matter?
And yet we need our coordinates. Where am I on the space-time continuum? A question as urgent as ever.
