In his autobiography, Disturbing the Universe, Freeman
Dyson cites a letter Einstein wrote to his oldest friend, Michele Besso:
"Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion."

That Eistein was smart, wasn't he?

Are you going to see that new Keanu Reeves/Sandra Bullock film? I think it tries to address this issue of time/space.
