    I sleep in the Attic, as it is moving faster than the basement, thus time goes more slowly, and I live longer.  That's the problem with living up here at the 53rd parallel, we do not move as fast as those on the equator, thus age faster.  (I think I would live 2 or 3 one hundredths of a second longer if I lived on a mountain top at the equator.)
