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.
