Note to law students: if you have ever hoped you would not reach a point in life at which you develop a stapler preference, get out now.

Think of a reel of motion picture film. Each frame is a lifetime, but all of them exist at once.

From one frame through another, any frame can be reached, but all of them exist at once.
