Good idea to read this, but be warned – it is 47 pages and does not have any examples of the axiomatizations PatH has provided in this thread to demonstrate the logical incompatibility of 3D and 4D views.  Here’s an exercise for those who are willing to dig in: try to understand what “Pat at t” (i.e. Pat at time t) or (x at t) mean.  If you understand that, and can explain it in under five sentences, please let us know your interpretation.  (Hint: it is not a time-slice of a 4D Pat).

Anyone who has been following the debate on this thread might be interested in an edited version of a similar debate on the same general topic which took place on the SUO list some time ago. It can be found here:

Adam Pease, the editor, took some liberties with the ordering so the arguments are a little disjointed in a few places, but it makes most of the points fairly clearly and might be amusing to read in places.
