Hi, Khaled -
I find it fascinating that Newton and Leibnitz came upon the calculus from
different vectors: the German via integration and the Englishman via
differentiation. Need we any more proof that there's such a thing as a
national character?
[ Sidis has a very interesting theory centering on continuity of place:

What we need is to find is the differentiation in the integration, and the
integration in the differentiation. Then we're really cooking.
[ I used to kid that if I ran a personal ad, it'd read "Seeking girl with
Apollonian mind in Dionysian body." ]
What you write makes me think of time cones and photon-paths in Einstein.
Did you hear that they're going to test to see if there's detectable
evidence of multiverses pinging off our own universe? I'm scientifically
conservative, but I love wild imaginativeness in the speculative realm. : )
