Well, no! If we take time as local (!) measurement of something, this measurement is depending on where you are. Since you are always somewhere, you can always measure time. But you cannot compare the measured time at on spot with time somewhere else, since you can only be at one spot at any given time. But we can use relativity and compare relative motion of two spots and time measured there. These spots should be of equal rights, hence one is at rest and one in motion. Which one is at rest is dependent on where we are. If you are at spot A and see spot B receding, that A is at rest and B moving. If you are at spot B and see spot A receding, than spot B is at rest and spot A moving. Now both statements are true and valid at the same time. So velocity is a mutual relation and 'relative'. This would also mean, that time is 'relative' too and could turn into a spatial direction. Now the question is: where could the axis of time point to? My assumption: actually any direction is possible and to any axis of time belongs an associated universe. > A system might go its own way and forever together, for > example into the singularity, but the event horizon is > an effective one-way boundary to parallel transport. > > You might write your own future, but as far as it's distinct, > the rest of the universe goes on its own. I would say, the 'universe' is not really universal. What we call universe is actually a picture, which we perceive from the past. This is limited to what we can see and to what we can receive at our current position. This is insofar ok, as we would not call our visions 'universal', since they are actually specific. The 'real thing' is therefore only visible in parts. This 'real thing' is now, what we would like to know more about. Unfortunately it is mostly invisible. If we like to learn more about something large and invisible, we need to test all sorts of possible mechanisms, if they would look under some strange conditions like the universe looks for us. I have tested quite a few possibilities and found, that this mechanism I call 'structured spacetime' works quite well. So I don't try to model the universe or provide means to do something useful, but try to find out how nature itself operates at a fundamental level. If we suppose some sort of 'mathematical beauty' in nature, we assume, such mechanisms utilise principles, which are similar to those for which we have mathematical descriptions. Now we only need to chose the right mathematical principle and compare this with what we observe in nature. Unfortunately there are many possibilities. But I found rotations and complex four-vectors quite fitting. So this is a mechanism, which I assume to be how nature operates on a fundamental level. I compared it to several aspects of nature and it worked quite well. (here: https://docs.google.com/present/view?id=dd8jz2tx_3gfzvqgd6 ) Whether you like it or not or regard the idea as useful, that is not really important, since nature operates somehow and this 'somehow' is, what we like to know more about - not about me or you.
