You are joking right? About this trying to prove that time doesn't exist bollox. Again, as with the concept thing, it doesn't matter what measures you choose to mark the passage of time with, it still passes whether you measure it or not, just like it still exists whether you can conceieve of it or not. It's really easy, you just start by noticing that night follows day then it's day again then it's night again - of course if you are at extreme northen or southern regions then the length of the days and nights alters considerably. Exactly as it ought to, given the rate of spin of the Earth and the amount of days-nights it takes for it to complete one orbit of the local star.
