IS TIME RUNNING OUT?

Every day, newspaper scare stories warn that were exhausting the worlds natural resources.
Whether its oil, Gas ozone, rain forests or fish, the chanses are were using up our dwindling supplies like theres no tomorrow.
Now, says a report from a leading university, ther may not even be a tomorrow. For if the boffins calculations are correct, we are wasting time at such a rate, that by the year 2040 we will have run out of it all together, and everything will stop.
People simply dont seem to realise that Time is a finite resource, the reports author told us.

I contacted time boffin Mr Stephen Hawking, to describe what Britain may look like in 2040, when time runs out.
" The first thing that will strike a visitor to the timeless world of tomorrow, will be how very dark it is, even in the middle of the day.
Thats because light travells at 186000 miles per second. Without seconds to travell in, the light will simply stay up in space, casting our World in to a state of constant gloom. As a result we will have to carry torches everywhere we go.
Ordinary activities which we take for granted now will become impossible, when time runs out.
Our boiled eggs will always come out wrong, either too hard or too soft, as ther will be no way to judge how long theyve been in the pan, and setting the video to record our favourite programmes while we are out will be a nightmare."
