I have it on good authority that the dinosaurs used 10 revolutions of the planet to define 'a day'. It was important to them to do it this way.

Where's Carl Cox when you need him? Or do I mean Brian Sagan?

Yes, humans gave it a number and relevance, due to it's significance re: agriculture etc. These numbers and significance are purely man made - they do not exist outside of our (human) interpretation. There are not 365 of 'anything' in a 'year' in the natural world. WE decided. (I think).

Oh, my days! (However many of those there are...) Thank ***k I'm off to the Maldives on Sunday, that's all I can add. :bigwave:

I thought that was obvious.

Thank you! (Except that there are actually 21 groloks in a jarly...but who's counting? )

Now that's sorted, I'm looking forward to the match in 7.41 and a quarter lemons.

So, it is a matter of convenience - ie. man made. Good .

Of course we could have, in exactly the same way as we could have decided to have 10 hours in a day - 'long' or otherwise. Think of it as using metric or imperial measurements, the actual length is still the same whether we use either scale.

Maybe he finds it difficult to mock the afflicted?

Only the ones that have an element of Truth.

My cock is 27 feet long in the 'real universe'. Sadly, it's much shorter when based on measurements invented by humans. However, The Truth is a massive cock by any standards. :lolol:

It's quite frightening that some people can actually believe such utter crap. Still, as long as I never have to sit next to one on a long haul flight, I'll be happy.

You are a funny chap. :lolol:

Did the fresh air help to clear your mind? :)

Hopefully for a leap year! :laugh:

And I suppose that a minute had 60 seconds, an hour had 60 minutes and there were 24 hours in a day, too?

It was a convenient number to choose. It could just as easily been every fourth revolution of the Earth around the Sun, if it suited. Christ on a bicycle.

People 'did' decide, ffs!
