Default The Impact of Einstein on Human Rationality

http://www.physorg.com/news63371210.html :

"Say you have a cup of coffee and a spoon," Mallett explained to
PhysOrg.com. "The coffee is empty space, and the spoon is the
circulating light beam. When you stir the coffee with the spoon, the
coffee - or the empty space - gets twisted. Suppose you drop a
sugar cube in the coffee. If empty space were twisting, you'd be able
to detect it by observing a subatomic particle moving around in the
space."
And according to Einstein, whenever you do something to space, you also
affect time. Twisting space causes time to be twisted, meaning you
could theoretically walk through time as you walk through space."

The great thing is, you aren't at all obsessed with Einstein, or
anything he did.


Great!

Ed, er, I mean Pentcho - if you're going to post the same crap ad
nauseum, please at least show just a smidgen of creativity, or make it
just the least bit interesting. I mean, go fart, Ed- er, I mean
Pentcho, put just a little effort into it instead of posting while
having sex with your diarrheic baboon, as is your wont. Thank you.
Have a nice day.

To Pentcho,

Keep up the good work!

And if you could demonstrate how time or space are physical in any
way, you may have something.

To Pentcho,

It is interesting to note how some people don't know when you are kidding or
not. Maybe you should have dated your posting April 1.

"When you stir the coffee with the spoon, the coffee - or the empty space -
gets twisted." Really!

Len.

Breathtaking development of the topic:

It really is a matter of semantics. From a purely geometrodynamic
perspective, mather, energy and spacetime geometry are one-in-the same.
Ergo, that that is is spacetime. That is, indeed, what I believe to be the
correct understanding.
