It's Time (Lyric) by PoeticXTC

It's time that makes us It's time which breaks us It's time we take responsiblity at hand. It's time that fakes us It's time which takes us It's time we all make a stand. It's time that heals us It's time which kills us It's time we find a cure. It's time that fills us it's time which steals us It's time we should all mature. It's time that fails us It's time which bails us It's time we survive on our own. It's time that hails us It's time which sells us It's time we should not be alone. It's time that finds us It's time which binds us It's time we come together as one. It's time that minds us It's time which blinds us It's time we light the way for the sun. It's time that sold us It's time which holds us It's time we put our dreams in range. It's time that molds us It's time which olds us It's time we give our lives a change. It's time that makes us It's time which breaks us It's time that fakes us It's time which takes us It's time that fills us It's time which steals us It's time that heals us It's time which kills us It's time that fails us It's time which bails us It's time that hails us It's time which sells us It's time that finds us It's time which binds us It's time that minds us It's time which blinds us It's time that sold us It's time which holds us It's time that molds us It's time which olds us It's time that we stop making excuses for our downfalls. It's time which we start making a reality of it all. It's time we stop blaming time, for wasted, on time we do not have. It's Time... It's Time!

"Perceptual verification" is also logical deduction.

Suppose your scientist deduces 332 planets. Then he looks through his telescope and sees 332 dots. (If he's using a radio telescope he sees 332 splotches of radio waves that look like what he's deduced stars' radio waves look like, not the stars themselves, but that's beside the point.) In the end, he has to logically deduce that the 332 dots he sees are stars. Even if he were to construct a spacecraft and land on each of 332 "planets", he would at some point or level have to deduce that, for one, the matter he was standing on comprised a "planet" and this "planet" orbits the sun he was considering, and for two, that the sensations he was experiencing meant he was "standing" on "matter". Is his conclusion - that a particular star has 332 planets - any less logically deduced because he's seen the planets or stood on them? I'd say no. But I have a feeling -=Dark_Angel=-'s going to get back from the Orkneys and tear us all new ones on this. Best to go on about our business and pretend this whole thing never happened.
