Surely the editor is wrong to suggest it is no longer possible to discuss psychological time without introducing physics. Einstein’s theories predicate a landscape of different time speeds. Consciousness can only experience time moving at one rate, so Einstein’s variety of time rates will forever lie outside experience. Thus two spheres of discourse arise which can never overlap.

Roger - I expect it depends what you mean by experience. One can experience the effect of something (eg. the red-shifted photons) without experiencing the thing itself (the local time dilation).
