Without yesterday, there is no today.  It isn't comparing "apples to oranges", the past and present are directly in relation. 

well that view changed for me, juts read a book from Brian Greene about human understanding of space and time,
"The fabric of the cosmos: space, time, and the texture of reality"
Greene is into Quantum electrodynamics, in short, some physik tests (at LHC and others) shows there is no past or future, its just
a human feeling. Looks like everything what happend, we call it the past, the same thing applies to the future, it is allready done,
ok ok i know it sounds wired ;)

have a nice day

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

There is a human past, present and future.  Whether or not it is the timeline of the universe could be debatable.  Seems to me the question is one of scale... like Fahrenheit/Celsius/Kelvin.  They all measure the same thing, it's just a question of the scale.

The complete abandonment of "time" is ludicrous.  The human experience is defined by linearity, even if the rest of the universe has none. Also, if you take out past and future, all the causality of most of the precepts of science fade into nothing.  Action/Reaction, without a linear time frame, becomes nothing.

Those pictures were unique, in providing a window on the human experience.
