I know when folks talk about events regarding the Chiefs, saying such and such happened in such and such year, it is such a foreign concept to me.
What happens to you when you glance at a clock with a moving second hand? As I understand, it shouldn't have anything to do with your perception of time. Your brain simply overrides "the blur" of moving your eyes with an image of what your eyes see when they stop moving.
