Where I join you (in failing to understand) is what happens as
the OM becomes of zero length. I did not say *the limit as
it becomes zero*, I said "zero". It's almost as though some
people take this as license to suppose that time is not a
necessary ingredient or even that time does not exist:

The dynamic I speak of in my approach can give instantations of "being" to
the preexisting states in many ways. For example: isolated states, all
states a universe contains simultaneously, and clusters of states that
would be closely coupled in a succession string of states. As "being"
moved within the system the last example would be like a pulse of "being"
with some non zero pulse width over the dimension of successor states for
a particular universe. This might be a model for consciousness, thinking,
continuity, observation, time, etc.
