Larry,
There are some very interesting theories around that take the position that time (and light) are both slowing down. It actually makes some sense. Remember, everything is made of atoms. Atoms degrade. We use this degradation to measure the age of 'stuff'. We call that atomic decay. If time is a function of the movement of heavenly bodies (ie. Sun & Moon) and these bodies are composed of atoms - atoms which decay or slow down I think a fair case can be made that light itself is slowing down.
I know as I get older it seems to speed up. <g> I take this as evidence that I am slowing down. <g>
