For anyone who likes books on science and stuff, I can't recommend Bill Brysons History of Nearly Everything enough.

Funny and an interesting read!

Gravity acts on space-time, not time.

But if you stand beside a great pyramid time slows down by 0.000000000000000000001 of a second or something.

Time changes for everyone every day, I move about a different amount than you do so my time is different, it's such a small amount it's almost non existent though.

indeed, if you are running time slows down or speeds up (can't remember) that tiny bit

Actually yes it speeds up the faster you go time goes faster, thats why if you travel close to the speed of light in space for a year 100 years on earth would have passed

As you speed up time slows down for you from an outside observers point of view, they speed up from your point of view.

True, the calculations say yes, but is there any proper proof? I don't know.

The faster you go the slower time passes for you not faster.

I'd recommend downloading steven hawkings last 3 videos. I'm in work so can't get the torrents up for you.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
