Well, we all know that you CAN see things and move when time is frozen because we've seen it happen in movies and on TV. If you see it on TV it must be true, right?

This always bothered me, though, since, as you mentioned, all the molecules should be frozen too. If the person halting time is then able to move around (technically, even if he is ABLE to move he should be prevented from doing so by the frozen molecules surrounding him) he must be displacing molecules to do so. I would imagine this would create massive surges of energy as molecules that are frozen are forced to move (theoretically occupying the space our "time freezer" has moved from). But how does this energy surge manifest itself?

Well, personally, I think it does so in two ways. One, I think St. Elmo's fire, that static electric discharge that forms over the masts of old sailing ships (proving time freezers have been around for a while) and in front of modern jets is one of the manifestations.

The other, more insidious one, is the random destruction of socks. I think the energy surge caused by these displaced molecules floats around until it finds a high static area (such as the inside of a dryer) where it spontainiously combusts. This inevitably leads to the destruction of one sock out of a pair.

I think we should all start a letter writing campaign to Hollywood asking them to stop using "Time Freezing" actors in their movies. I don't know about you all, but I grow tired of buying socks!
