Basically, what we're seeing here is, if you want to understand a behavior, whether it's an appalling one, a wondrous one, or confusedly in between, if you want to understand that, you've got take into account what happened a second before to a million years before, everything in between.
Básicamente, lo que vemos es, si queremos entender un comportamiento, ya bien repugnante, maravilloso o confusamente equidistante, si queremos comprender, debemos tomar en cuenta lo que pasó desde un segundo antes hasta un millón de años atrás y todo el tiempo entre ese intervalo.
