but that would be a negative which you do not allow.(backwards)

so what does it manifest as?(my goodness is this an anything goes,(hypothetiacl) situation?

also there should be an infinity of cause and effect.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">Every effect is a change and therefore a cause of something else.

Tom

speed is your defence?(strange),so what then is it, if not cause-effect? this is getting stranger and stranger as we go deeper.

so your saying that vibration because of collision(within a certain scale) can move forward and backwards in our scale and time?

but the problem is the proximity of infinity of scale.is is 1mm or 100,000mm from our reality of scale.for the closer to our scale the more of the effect other scales will have.therefore the wavelength of the vibration will be detectable,therefore will interfer with our scale.

vibration is a relative thing Tom you can't just dismiss it out of hand,because you think so,prove it with out a doubt.

but Tom the equivalent of(cause-effect) must exist, otherwise really why not? i mean the argument can go that i think that it does, you think not not,and how would anyone know for sure who's right?

also are you saying there is no sound at all on either side of our scale? is this not a relative perspective?

if i'm missing something here i also welcome input from others!!

[tvf] "Can any other readers help me understand the questions ... "

Probably not. But try this WAG - at one point in his ... post ... I get a vague impression that he is saying:

Suppose that our scale is "1.000 meter".

Then he (? says/asks ?) can a vibration at the "0.999 meter" scale (? be detected/influence ?) things at our scale.

North? Am I getting warm?

proximity,as in well, proximity!! what more can i say,really.(oops i almost forgot, as well 360 degrees(3D)). gett'in there by the way.
