$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('albente', 'S')o? The event is in the middle of course. I am sitting here on my desk 10,000 miles away but am convinced to one day crack the 'code of time'.

Imagine, once you could dip in the past (yes of course the past of other individuals and for for the most part their emotional experiences) you would possibly get a grip on what we all work on here!

Time!
You are one obscure poster, albente. What does cracking the code of time involve? Do you rub your fingers on your shirt and spin the dial, listening to the tumblers click and the seconds tick? And what do we all work on here? Here's some music about the Hoffman thing:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('John Prine', 'W')hen I woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad
Seem like total silence was the only friend I had
Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won
And it was twelve o'clock before I realized
That I was havin' .. no fun

Chorus:
But fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

Last time I checked my bankroll,
It was gettin' thin
Sometimes it seems like the bottom
Is the only place I've been
I Chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end
And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I sat down in my closet with all my overalls
Tryin' to get away
From all the ears inside my walls
I dreamed the police heard
Everything I thought... what then?
Well I went to court
And the judge's name was Hoffman

Ah but fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun
Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun

I had a mind boggeling moment of the understanding and function oftime on a trip once. One of those moments of epiphany where you feel you're holding the holy grail of eternal wisdom. I guess the statement can likewise be understood only under similar circumstances and a similar mindset, be they induced by substances or may they occur naturally, that is not the point. It is not LSD what was feared when it was made illegal in 1965 but the fact that it can act as a key to the doors of perception.

In Wikipedias definition of Entropy you find the following statment in the lower part under the 'psychological' arrow of time: ...and that we can remember the past rather than the future.
