Clock Time and Entropy

Abstract

Testable conditional probabilities appear to be restricted to single hypersurfaces (marvelous moments) and depend only on stationary observables. Observable evolution, such as a change of entropy, should be expressed as a dependence upon clock time, not upon inaccessible coordinate time.
