	The phrase "Trousers of Time" probably comes from the 1960's BBC radio comedy series "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" whose stars went on to be "Monty Python" and "The Goodies". One series included a Dr Who parody - "Professor Prune and The Electric Time Trousers" (said in a spooky voice with echo effects). The cast travelled the universe in the Time Trousers encountering dreadful jokes: "There's a library at the end of the left trouserleg", "Aha! A turnup for the book."

Why did we talk about the ''The Trousers of Time'' when [[Time|she]] never wore them? [[Lobsang Ludd|He]] probably does, but it has nothing to do with his suit bottoms either. No one wears them; they're empty. It's an image of a shape with one entrance and two exits. One may imagine falling continually into the waistband, not knowing from which leg one may emerge. So does history occur: in myriad, often unconsidered, minor decisions.

The [[History Monks]] keep the Trousers pressed and mended. Occasionally they change the style to keep up with what the times should be; now and then one leg may be let out to extra-baggy or reduced to a stocking. Random chance is often good enough, but when it fails to provide the correct outcome [[Lu-Tze]] and the Monks of [[Oi Dong]] are there to help.
