My argument is that they do not exsist, however, i am having trouble formulating my ideas, if you have any information, it would be most helpful. I think the general consensus on this list is that the amount of space and time around, though not insignificant, is totally dwarfed by the amount of spam spewed across the net (which is not space, time, or matter) and the number of totally irrelevant posts to the Debian lists. If you have any other questions regarding space, time, and matter, you might want to read some books by Douglas Adams to make it perfectly clear that they in fact do not exist. -- Ben Pfaff [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senders of unsolicited commercial e-mail will receive free 32MB core files! -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: space, time, matter
Dear Brendan - Matter does exist. However, it has no place to be since space and time have gone away to visit energy.
