  revchron is bad
Reverse chronological order is a bad way to live. It makes you feel like the now is more than the once was or might be someday. It is an illusion to think your life, your memoirs work that way.

Have you ever read an autobiography or journal that started with the last and final entry, and worked its way backward, in reverse chronological order?

RevChron is bad. It's counter-clockwise, against nature, is ill bred, a boor. It's presumptuous to think that the latest occurence is of the most importance or significance. How can you predict any future movement based on a backward motion?

RevChron is at cross purposes to reality. It goes from Finish to Start, the horse after the cart.
