I found the use of the word "touch" philosophically profound. Photons "touch" our eyes. When I look at Mars, I'm not experiencing Mars directly, I'm "touching" the photons reflected off of it and into my vision. It then goes into my perception and is interpreted from there. Mars is tangible to me only by interfacing my optic nerves with the reflected photons off its surface. All other senses can be thought of in the same manner.
So, is time tangible?
