According to the theories of relativity and associated time
dilation, "time" can be seen to move at different speeds due to the differing reference frames of the observers.
It's just one of the freaky effects of Einstein's ideas about
space-time. Another freaky effect
of time appearing to move unusually slowly is due to the Apple
Corporation. They claim the
download for their latest iPhone update takes "16 minutes", when in
fact it takes about 42 years. Conclusion?
The Apple servers are obviously located on a rocket ship approaching the
speed of light, hence the disparity in times.
Seems like a reasonable assumption.
