So Wozniak believes time is a human invention, and
that's its ONLY definition, yet trees grow, die
and decay. He must believe that they didn't do
so before clocks were invented :-))
It may. Time remains purely virtual abstract
invented by humans - for the purpose of
describing.

No, I don't. Harnagel is just lying again.
I'm just trying to understand Wozniak's bizarre assertion
that time only exists because of human inventions. I have
pointed out the insanity of that monumental absurdity, yet
Wozniak maintains his foolishness, apparently because he
can never admit it even when he is glaringly wrong.
“To hate being wrong is to change your opinion when you are
proven wrong; whereas pride, even when proven wrong, decides
to go on being wrong.” ― Criss Jami
"So the universe is not quite as you thought it was. You'd
better rearrange your beliefs, then. Because you certainly
can't rearrange the universe." – Isaac Asimov
Wozniak might be able to find some followers:
"There is no belief, however foolish, that will not gather
its faithful adherents who will defend it to the death."
-- Isaac Asimov
I suspect that Wozniak is the disproof of that quote since
NO ONE in the whole world believes anything he says.
