HORRIBLY
COMPLICATED DEFINITIONS,
WE RETURN TO THE ANCIENT REALIZATION
THAT THE PAST REPRESENTS THE EVENTS
WE CAN POSSIBLY HAVE OBSERVED AND RECORDED IN MEMORY
BEFORE THE MOMENT OF OUR SPEAKING, THE PRESENT REPRESENTS
THE EVENTS THAT OCCUR AS WE SPEAK, AND THE FUTURE
IS UNKNOWN BUT SUBJECT TO PREDICTION.
And that prediction is infuriatingly difficult to make,
because we can never understand the underlying dynamics of our evolution well enough,
or make all the required observations to extrapolate forward, and our observed present
may yet be affected by events from the chronological future.
That difficulty may lessen the despair of certain catastrophe
and allow us to live in hope, but whether we choose to impose on the un-certain future a positive or negative face,
what is coming will be the consequence of what happens now. This applies equally to global warming and the eventual
table of contents of this book (time & human language now), and of course my list was somewhat
between a suggestion and a prediction, with no intention of imposing ~ bullet points blazing ~
a future to be fulfilled at all cost
