   That's one solution. However, anyone with dementia would probably not be   
   able to do that, especially when they are obviously in a time warp.

   Because Time is curved, just like Einstein said?   
      
   For more than a century, physics has struggled to say what time actually   
   is. This struggle is not philosophical nitpicking. It sits at the heart   
   of some of the deepest problems in science.

   According to recent reports, Time arises from information.   
      
   "Every interaction, such as two particles crashing, writes information   
   into the universe. These imprints accumulate. Because they cannot be   
   erased, they define a natural ordering of events. Earlier states are   
   those with fewer informational records. Later states are those with   
   more." - Florian Neukart, Leiden University
