The second part is also not a coincidence, because the correlation does not occur: events are not the points of space-time. At best, events are what happen at such points, by which we pick out some as interesting. --part1_91.9840b08.280f372f_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit In a message dated 4/18/2001 12:48:04 PM Central Daylight Time,

It is not a coincidence that the basic event abstractor refers to events, and
that the word "event" is used in describing it.  The second part is also not
a coincidence, because the correlation does not occur: events are not the
points of space-time. At best, events are what happen at such points, by
which we pick out some as interesting. --part1_91.9840b08.280f372f_boundary--
