Time, the most elusive of physical quantities, is NOT, as its history would indicate, best described by the well known "Arrow of Time" (an "arrow" which travels from past to future). Similar to temperature, time has magnitude only (a distinct property of a "scalar quantity"). TIME HAS NO DIRECTION (no north, no south, no up, no down). Therefore one could not possibly "shoot" an arrow of time as no target exists which could be struck by such an arrow! We must search for a more suitable metaphor. 
     Time has fictitious and imaginary qualities as proclaimed by Albert Einstein, and then later expanded upon by Stephen Hawking. But imaginary qualities are useful in a mathematical description only and do not help to explain in a more comprehensible language exactly what time is. Time does "appear" to have motion, always from the past to the future, but herein lies a "semantic trap," a concept that has done more to confuse the real meaning of time than perhaps any other concept in the informal application of physics to our daily lives. 
  TIME IS NOW. It was always now and forever will be now, throughout the biosphere. It is synchronized on Earth (within fractions of a second) from one geographic position to another. These are novel, seemingly powerful statements that must be explained (postscript #112). They do, however,  incorporate physical theories, including Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, for even though "moving clocks run slowly," every such clock is "now time" (postscript #106). 
 

     Time can be considered as the reading on small, accurate clocks, placed "everywhere" in our environment. The clocks have the ability to project "time labels" onto any passing "vector quantity," such as moving energy or mass. (A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction). Energy vectors, we know from quantum mechanics, have both linear and angular velocities and accelerations; in other words such vectors move in three (and only three) orthogonal (at right angle) "spacial dimensions," for example: north, east and up (a more detailed description of the concept of "dimension" is now in postscript #121). So it is the vectors that move in three "spacial dimensions" and with them move the "time labels," NOT THE "SCALAR TIME," which is merely a property of a small, accurate clock. The "labels" can fool us into thinking that time has "one (and possibly three) spacial dimensions," but it does NOT. Time is ZERO-DIMENSIONAL (please see postscript #121). 
     Time "labels" can be linear, creating an illusory "arrow of time," or they can be rotational (as are most particles in physics), OR BOTH! The latter case creates an apparent "three-dimensional-like"  time but in fact we are always dealing with only a three-dimensional vector "carrying time labels." 
     We are now ready to clarify the description of "Rhythm Based Time" (RBT) in the "Lanzarote" paper. RBT was precisely defined as: The Perception of Lateness Relative to On Timeness, in a plane orthogonal to an "arrow of linear time." Such perceptions must be made, however, using the "time labels," not the "now time" of any nearby clock. For communication using RBT, the "labels" may be "carried" in the mind as biological times and therefore, for "Rhythm Based Communication," we can predict that the effective "alpha concepts" must be shorter than the memory durations of the species involved.
