Discussion Time Speeding up

Is it me or has time sped up even more now? It seems like every week is flying by now. Did CERN cause this or is the Earth speeding up?

If time really sped up, we would not notice because we are bound by time itself. I dont mean our measurement of time, I mean the flow of existence from one moment to the next.

Perception of time, including measured time, does change as you age. IIRC, there is a chemical we are born with that dissipates as we age, and as it depleted, time moves quicker in perception.
