The best explaination of what space and time actually are is given in the Critique of Pure Reason. Briefly put, space and time are the a priori forms of our intuition. Reconciling this with relativity did seem difficult, until one realizes that there is an absolute spacetime; with different reference frames being represented by rotations in spacetime. Goldstein's text on Classical Mechanics contains a good explaination of this. Hope this helps. Dan M. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
