	Here is the painting of a landscape.
	But the artist who painted that picture says,
	- Something is missing. What is it?
	It is I myself who was a part of the landscape I painted.
	So he mentally takes a step backward
	- or 'regresses' -- and paints...
	...a picture of the artist painting
	a picture of the landscape.
	And still something is missing. And that
	something is still his real self
	painting the second picture. So he
	'regresses' further and paints a third...
	...a picture of the artist painting a
	picture of the artist painting a
	picture of the landscape. And because
	something is still missing, he paints a
	fourth and fifth picture...
	...until there is a picture of
	the artist painting a picture of the
	artist painting a picture of the
	artist painting a picture of the
	artist painting the landscape.
	So infinite regression is--
	--It is the moment when our artist,
	having regressed to the point of
	infinity, himself becomes a part
	of the picture he has painted and
	is both the Observer and the observed.
	Well, in that peculiar condition,
	what would he be observing if he were observing
	Time?
	He would perceive, Mr. Bonds, that Time is like
	a freeway with an infinite number of
	'lanes'
	-- all leading from the past
	into the future. But not into the
	same future. A driver in Lane 'A'
	may crash, while a driver in Lane 'B'
	survives. It follows that a driver,
	by changing lanes, can change his
	future.
	Mr. Bonds, i think that time can
	fully be understood by an observer
	with the Godlike gift of infinite
	regression
	Do you believe that?
	Absolutely! I think it is the only explanation.
