I'm Insane

[hostilecrayon]

From my Senior Seminar - Philosophy of Space and Time:

More detailed course description: Our course is about space. What sort of space? Not empty space. If you have a cubic box that is one foot on each edge and you fill it with marbles, then how much space is there left in the box? There are two answers. (1) A cubic foot. (2) It depends on how big

It's a little too early in the morning for me to think about stuff like that. :-)

My head is a little too filled up right now with medical terminology (the class I'm taking at night). :-)

Would the people there walk backwards up steps while remembering the future?

God I hope so. What a world that'd be!

What would human experience be like if time's arrow reversed direction in some far off corner of the universe? Would the people there walk backwards up steps while remembering the future?First of all, I find it disappointing that the word "remember" is used in this potentially hypothetical situation of a corner of the universe (it has corners?) where time's arrow goes backward, what with the connotations of "remember" being of things "past" and the "past" is the "future" in this example. Mabye we'd "rebmemer" instead

The last line sounds like something from either Terry Prachett or Douglas Adams.

You could do a lot worse than to be a philosophy nerd. That sounds like a fascinating class - I hope you enjoy it.
