Universal Time

"All measurable intervals are time-intervals."

"Length and Space are artefacts of the human mind."

"Universal Time", originally called "The Dimensionality of Time", was Bemard Newsam's contribution to current thinking on the nature of time and space. He bequeathed us, his family, the task of launching this idea into the world of thought, ideally with his name on it. This is our attempt to fulfil that task.
