Physical results balance out now. Theoretical possibilities and theological probability last for generations added so far. Actual time evolving is measured by heart beats acquired since conception days lived after birth are counted one rotation at a time in series parallel space occupied since conception regardless womb, individually living, dead, decomposed corpse.
No ancestor has a second generation gap added. But an ancestor can become part of next generation of ancestors carrying their specific chromosomes forward until extinction arrives.
Chronological order by rotation of the planet is an outside in rational thought process by ancestors repeating social justifications 24/7 within the species daily here.
Managing time alive as a society isn't the same thing as personally managing your own behavior cradle to grave. Civic minds govern everyone else to speculate what else is possible. Civil brains tolerate sharing time alive since conception as equally inhabiting space now.
Back to the topic of this thread, what poles are the subject? My brain read that as north and south poles of rotating planet. this topic existed in the Mayan Calendar. Mayan Civilization became extinct between 800 and 900 AD.
