Barry, you don't get what I wrote. It's both large and small but it has no limits. It does have a dimension...it's infinite.
We say that the smallest possible unit of length and time are the Planck length and Planck Time (both approx 10^-43 cm or sec in size). But how do we actually know that...it's the smallest we can measure and the smallest our present theories allow for. Even now, they're talking about the graininess of spacetime being even smaller than the Planck Length. That then begs the question...how can you get something smaller than the supposedly smallest possible unit of measurement?? How small can small get?? Conversely, how big can big get?? What happens at these scales to everything??.
Something to think about
