Hi Larry -
At the risk of arguing about the argument, it is in fact
the same argument! ;-)
Eric Goldstein
In fact, there is no _absolute_ definition of any of the
physical fundamental quantities, not space or time. We know
something about their apparent interaction and have
mathematical models of some of them, but we don't really
know what they are. It may well be that human intelligence
is in some way limited to the point where such things are
beyond us and we are reduced to mysticism to explain or
attempt to understand them. The need for explanation seems
to be in some way fundamental to human intelligence. That
can lead us astray because we often make up explanations
where there are none.
