Talk:Time differential

Lead

The lead's really muddy right now, and because I'm not sure what's trying to be said, I'm not sure how to change it. Clearly we need something simple.

A time differential was — what, exactly?

The gobbledygook that's there now just doesn't parse correctly. It's not straightforward English. We need something short and punchy in the lead. Maybe some of these would work:

• the underlying cause of the Blinovitch Limitation Effect
• essentially the temporal "gap" between two differently-aged versions of the same being. When these two versions touched, the differential caused the Blinovitch Limitation EFfect, typically resulting in an explosion that was usually detrimental to the very fabric of space and time.

I have no idea if you're trying to say anything like that, but somehow I think we need to be moving towards more direct language like that.
