Hi Craig you have just hit upon my dilemma.

(1) all of my observations tell me that any three dimensional object has a centre.

(2) my observations tell me the universe is three dimensional.

(3) therefore the universe must have a centre.

The above is nothing more or less than basic logic and as such cannot be denied. However as it is a tautology it does not of necessity about reality.

I suppose that I am having the same type of problem that someone who is working on a unified theory faces; how do you make the micro and the macro make sense together?

Oh well, as you say Craig one can only keep on keeping on.

Brian
