If this is how you want to define the backwards running of time, it is OK with me. However, when watching the Olympics in Rio this past summer, the runners ran in a forwards direction. I could turn to my watch and catch a scheduled event even though I was in another hemisphere.
Toto, Manny, Louis, You sure know how to make friends...

I'm really trying to be patient and supporting but it is not easy when someone has their very own concept of physics which has very little in common with the known, measured, thought through concepts of our times and would rather substitute their own ill conceived notions. It is very easy to take the revelator's comments in a totally different direction from what the revelators had in mind.
I don't know why it is so very hard to understand that I never said that I wanted to define how time ran: backwards or forwards. I have merely tried to offer a slightly alternate perspective that the status of today's Physics is not as hopeless as you would make out. But one must
fully understand and appreciate its strengths before offering things as replacements that will
never reflect the reality of how the universe functions... At least a tiny bit of reality testing is needed...
