Gene Ray Before Time Cube
Before Time Cube, Otis E. Ray advocated the sport of marbles. He authored a book titled Mr. Marbles – Marbles for Everyone, and got the city council of St. Petersburg, Florida to proclaim a "Marbles Week" in the 1970s. In 1987, this became a controversial attempt to establish a million dollar marble tournament inside a huge round structure and establish a philosophical "Order of the Sphere." Gene Ray is listed as President and Treasurer of the World Professional Marbles Players Association. "Otis E. Ray" is also listed as the owner of US patents 4179122 and 4393618 for a "Marble game apparatus" and a "Novelty written message device suitable for mailing".

Famous quotes containing the words ray and/or time:
“A small voice issued from a bed placed in utter darkness where no ray of light was admitted, complaining of bad nerves, low spirits, and terrible dreams.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“You need an infinite stretch of time ahead of you to start to think, infinite energy to make the smallest decision. The world is getting denser. The immense number of useless projects is bewildering. Too many things have to be put in to balance up an uncertain scale. You can’t disappear anymore. You die in a state of total indecision.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
