So...in Tempus Anyone?, I'd always thought that time just passed differently in the two universes, seeing as Lois was in altMetropolis for 2 days, but when she got home, she'd only been gone for 10 seconds. I did think it a little odd (and was shocked that the writers hadn't cared to check their math

) when I sat down one day to do some calculations (no name calling please

) and found that if altClark spent 4 months in Metropolis, he'd have been gone for 14 *years* in his universe (don't quote me on the math...I lost my calculation sheet

). Well, I'd just passed it off as poor research or something because all in all, it didn't really matter too much.
Now, what really left me flummoxed was when Paul said, "No, Wells brought her back to Metropolis *and* took her back in time so she wouldn't have been gone so long."
Well this was my reaction
What I want to know...what did you guys think when you first saw the episode? What is your standing belief as far as the show/L&C canon is concerned?
