I thought I'd share on with you which has a bit of a historical thought. I found it interesting, & maybe some of you will. Despite what it says, I plan to use the ideas that others of you sent.

Dear Mary, It's just a guess, but I wouldn't think the Romans had such a concept as "moment." I know it's not just a short space of time, it's more than that, but it starts with a sense of time. Wouldn't that have been a tall order in the era before clocks? One of the most interesting lectures I heard in graduate school was the introduction of industrial time. Before that, it was pretty much night and day, work days and holy days. Well, there was matins..... but it took a lot to whip folks up in the a.m. to get to the factory door "on time."
