Just because you never question the geometry doesn't mean no one has. In
fact, physicists _have_ done that, which is why they recognized that
blindly accepting 3-d euclidean geometry and creating convoluted schemes
to deal with lorentz invariance was silly. Nature could have just as
easily chosen the geometry of the universe to be the four dimensional
spacetime and skipped all of the convoluted schemes necessary to only make
the universe appear to be four dimensional spacetime. Let me know when you
have a theory that explains 3-dimensional euclidean space rather than
blindly accepting it and then waxing hypocritic. Why do you blindly
attribute so much physics to geometry, paul?
