According to Newton, Time and Space are seperate.

But according to Einstein they are entwined.

Next we will be discussing how to spell 2The cat sat on the mat". Best keep it simple for my audience.

Well, the proper way to spell 2 is t-w-o, unless that is a typo and supposed to be a quotation. If so, then I'll assume you are using quotations to title a book, which presents all sorts of problems with what you did there, as book titles are not supposed to be in quotes, but underlined or in italics. Plus every word is supposed to be capitalized except the common word the. So it should read: The Cat Sat On the Mat. However, if it is not a title you are quoting, but a phrase in the book, then at least put the last quotation mark after the period, not before it.

There.

It was also the most boring thing I've ever labored through writing.

Unfortunately due to the space time equilibrium you will never know if it is the most boring thing that you will ever write.

Nice way to bring the discussion back to the original topic.

Although that doesn't contradict what I wrote, because I wasn't talking about what I will write, but what I've written so far.

Anyways, I digress. So I've heard that there is stuff that Newton came up with that, while it might be observable in the physical world that immediately surrounds us, isn't observable everywhere in the universe as we know it now.

That's all I can give you, as I don't know what specifically Newton said about space and time being separate. It's been 25 years since I last studied physics. Although I do know what Einstein says about space and time.

I found it quite fascinating what I ended up reading when I broke my foot and was stuck on crutches for 3 months.

Relativity
Physics of the impossible (didnt seem so impossible after that)
Quantam Physics.

Oh and a 350 page book on body language.

Was quite an educational experience. Not very useful though, apart from the body language book.

Alright, I'll bite.



Here you see four (or possibly eight, but let's just say it's four for this) different colored ropes braided together. Nobody would argue that one of the colored ropes is the same rope as another. They are clearly separate, yet they are entwined.

The terms are not mutually exclusive.
