Is it possible for human to increase or decrease time speed?

If it's possible, is it actually the time increasing speed or decrease, or just the reaction of chemicals at different condition like pressure, gravitational field strength, temperature, electrical wave or that condition would never appear?

Time speed is base on rotation of the earth, not base on human whim. It is silly to increase or decrease time speed whenever human feel like doing so, hahaha...

What about make earth rotate faster or slower?

Nothing is impossible. We just have to do it the right way.

I've heard, that if you go very fast into space and then return to earth there might be time change in your age compared to what you thought it should be in the space craft. This is not time travel though but a difference in the tick tock. We might be taking about a "theory" of relativity see for one explanation http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-theory-of-relativity.htm since mass and energy and time are all in the same equation all should be affected?

I think time not change when going faster, but the reaction is getting slower.

To control time is possible, however mankind has much to learn to get there. One must also acquire wisdom or one could create a pretty big mess. This will not happen anytime soon. Patience, the distant future will hold these capabilities.

Well, this is a thought that had struck in my head from a long time. I feel like there is no time. So there is nothing to increase or decrease. Time is an illusion! :O If all the humans stop everything and just wait, what would happen? Time won't pass. Everything is still then. That means, simply, its the humans who make the time pass. So, spend your time effectively. Don't waste your time because we are not sure whether such a thing exists.
