Joseph: <<Quite right. It is evidence.>>
Nope, it's grandstanding.
You wrote <<So what evidence of this 4th dimension exists ? Any
predictions ? Any observations ? Anything ?>>
Joseph: <<See above.>>
No evidence was presented. What predictions exist ? What observations exist ? What are the characteristics of a 4th dimension ? Why does the distribution of the snails vary with the naturally found distribution ? Why only in Loess ?
You wrote <<Other than the 'snails' of course. Although I believe for
snails to be explained satisfactorily, one has to propose at least three
additional dimension.>>
<<Proceed a bit further and you may arrive. If you have the book, look at
Plates 32-40.>>
Wow, I was wrong, they are actually two dimensional.
