I agree with that, but when you define any single point within a dimensional system, it also can be pared away to include the dimensions below - my position at this instant in spacetime is created by particular expressions of the dimensions below, one planck length after the next as we travel the line of time.<BR/><BR/>But since Kaluza proved and Einstein agreed that we're in the fifth, not Rob Bryantonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18215892812705188148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995480544618201142.post-43739009798495046362007-10-01T02:44:00.000-06:002007-10-01T02:44:00.000-06:00In mathematics, 5-dimensional space and 6-dimensio...In mathematics, 5-dimensional space and 6-dimensional space are topologically distinct.
