Dimension

n-space

This dot "." represents duration and is one dimension.There can be .n. of
these in a system.
These dots ".."represent time and is another dimension.There can be .n. of
these in a system.
This line"_" represents motion and is another dimension.There can be .n. of
these in a system.

For simplicity we have normally reduced our system to four dimensions and n
vectors as this seemed relates to our biological apparatus. Time and space =
mind, eyes, ears, touch, smell, taste. This 4D*n system was mostly adequate
when we had only minimal control of our environment but recently the need
for more precise control seems to have appeared. Personal I feel that the
inclusion of duration in the basic four dimensions is needed as a minimum
for detailed understanding of structure this would bring us up to a 5D*n
minimum system. Any objections ? {:-). If I receive no coherent objections
then I will assume all future postings will be to a 5D*n format, after a
transition period of course.
