America and Canada are both British colonies. We should start a revolution or something.

As for you, Skw...grab ahold of your sense of reality and hold on, 'cause we're going on a tour of the temporal funhouse.
The present is the only time that we can definitively say exists. That is because we can identify that moment as being the moment of perception. Without perceiving the time directly, it is impossible to prove its very existence. Example: can you prove that 12:32:26 am of July 10, 1987 happened? You can show records of what happened at that time, maybe recall your own memories of that time...but you have no way of proving that your memories weren't, in fact, created ten minutes ago. Without being able to say, "The point in time exists because here it is," there can be no proof. The future, also, cannot be proven to exist for the obvious fact that we know nothing about it; in fact it is the "not-yet-happened" status that defines what we call the future.
The present is the only point of time that can be proven. It is our own perception of that "now" that makes it what it is. What does that make us?
Secret prize for the correct answer.
