Stosh Posted April 26, 2013 If I make coffee in my teapot its still a teapot- and when it is emptied its still a teapot rather than a lump of coal- if there is such a thing as a teapot. again its an abstract conceptual consideration of a real situation and defined by common usage of words.

Stosh Posted April 26, 2013 Post 49. Stosh, are you looking from inside the room or outside the room? I dont see how it matters. the room is still defined by walls wall defined by interface of matter and empty space therfore the corners can be counted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ミラー Posted April 27, 2013 Its hard to limit it to a single statement. The first statement is hard to work with, as there is tao in the crisp break of a trigger, which does both. Such a light action, with barely any effort at all, but with world changing consequences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) My brain broke on post 57 (4^3)^2 what dimension is it? lol very simple, actually... (space to the power of time) to the power of perspective equals experience? Space is 4-D; X, Y, and Z are planar, but dont accomidate proper eso/exo spheres. Time is 3-D; past, present, future and perception is 2-D. all 6 perceptions are most effectively represented on a 2-D plane, surface, or toroid- the moniter you're looking at right now, perhaps... all 3, x, y, and z are 2-D planes each. eso/exospheres are environments, bodies, cells, etc. which occupy planar 3-D. But even the most in depth 3-D perception can be equally matched on any sufficient 2-D plane. Edited April 28, 2013 by Northern Avid Judo Ant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
