   I would use other words, but actually had the same impression of   
   Einstein's text.   
      
   I meant that time is always an interval, while Einstein thought about   
   time as linear and countable.   
      
   But usually we use some starting point as reference, while often that   
   isn't mentioned.   
      
   What makes no sense, that are terms like 'bestimmte Ära' (certain era),   
   because eras are not numbered.   
      
   Also this concept of 'linear time' (embedded in 'big-bang theory') is   
   most likely wrong.   
      
   Einstein also used 'external time', which is similar to Newtons   
   'absolute time', while didn't use Poincare's 'local time'.   
      
   So, in my opinion SRT isn't 'relativistic' enough.
