Imagine a 3-D cube. It is defined by a unique set of coordinates. One corner of this cube is at the origin of an imaginary set of axes. Now, let's say this cube moves a certain distance from its original orientation and time has **not** passed. This object violates our original definition of the object. This NEW object is defined by a unique combination of two sets of coordinates. In order for our original object to move in three-dimensional space, a new dimensional quantity has to exist, i.e. time. Here's a brain teaser I've been working on for a bit. You know of Einstein's famous equation: E=mc^2. Take it one step further. If mass is a quantity relating to the third dimension, then what would be a suitible equation for the conversion of a unit of time to energy? - Ron III Don't ask how I came up with this, my mind just wanders sometimes. ;)Please reply to this email address.
