NO>>> NO>>>>

I refuse to believe you are slow Karen..... The things you say are so important to me, and i'm sure Linda and Rose think the same. It's just that you have to be "interested" in the very intelligent things you hunger for, and when you finally see it in your mind's eye, you make the shift in your thinking. That shift you made when you stepped off the earth and saw yourself standing 50 paces north of your starting point in the middle of the woods. You had the imagination to see that interesting reality and you learned something important that nobody very much ever thinks about as being "Quantified reality"........and now we are plunging down into the very ingredients of sand.(so-to-say).

Aren't you feeling a bit like "the little circle" in that cartoon. She was taken out of flatland and brought into the three dimensional world and soon realized what was possible once you liberate your mind.

There is no "slow" and there is no "smart"....there is only hunger for knowledge, and we all have it at some point. When you get hungry, come here and ask questions, or propose subject matters and we will pitch in to feed you.

May I have a copy of the tensors video please, Peetee? Ummm, it's got something to do with mapping vectors, transformations and distortions onto an n-dimensional manifold, I think, but I'd like to see the pictures.

By far the worst thing in this world is the lack of inclination or insight to ask questions rather than the not knowing the answers; and you'll never get the right answers until you've landed on the right questions

Having said that, here's my thoughts: :D

So what might a four dimensional object look like in 3D space? Well, it will look like a 3D object.
And what will the 4D line look like in 3D space? Wherever you look you'll be looking at the intersection of the 4D line and you, but you may not be able to see it.
And what will a process that oscillates in the fourth dimension look like? It may stand still in 3D space but it will get bigger and smaller.

When 4D spacetime was conceived, all dimensions were considered infinite. Uncle Albert felt uneasy about this and assigned the quantity R to the space dimensions, meaning an unknown but finite extent. I'm not sure about 'time' but I suspect it is a compactified dimension with an angular velocity which decreases as velocity increases.

How does everyone feel about this?

OK, Let,s set the foundation or "reality" in the stone carefully and evenly stacked in our sandbox

OK, I'm ready. q = esu = statcoulomb and dyne = qq'/r^2
