The author reflects on the impact of technology on one's sense of time. Topics discussed include the adjustment to the dramatic turnaround in epidemiology in human history, the author's relationship to time and the difficulty of banishing the memory of time's transience. Also mentioned is the tendency to recall time for the way in which technology changed the spatial and lineal dimensions of people's lives.
