Planck Time
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_time

t_p = √(h-bar G / c^5)

Planck Length
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_length

l_p = √(h-bar G / c^3)


These units are consistent.

l_p / t_p = √c^2 = c

One can't compare units of time directly to units of speed, but one
can say the the Planck length and time are related by the above
equation.

You are one who believes in mixing your lengths and your times
inextricably- with relativity- your explanation of length contraction
and time dilation is essentially comparisons of speeds and time
intervals, are they not?

What do think time dilation and length contraction are?

You're the relativist. I'm just trying to understand why relativists
do this.

There are sizes of infinities of instant. An expanded infinity is a
larger infinity of instants and to pass through them time is slower.
