I will not comment because David and others have already answer this clearly (I think). David Nyman, like David Deutsch and about half the physicists (let us say) agrees with this indexical notion of time. Let us just remember we agree that we disagree on this. My only conception of time which I am able to take as primitive is given by the litany of natural numbers (and here perhaps David, George and other "First person central" can disagree, but that's another thread).
