"Time" not a dimension.

The physics I understand is electron based and admitedly focused and applied in the electrical trade.

I wish I could give a more indepth opinion on this subject. Time has been shown over and over again to fit well into its classification as a fourth dimension.

I am an amateur radio operator and have been an aviation electronics technician in the US Navy in my checkered past, before editing Romance novels nowadays.

Even so, an electron-based view of electronics breaks down at the antenna or waveguide of a wireless set or radar: from there into space it is E and H waves, not electrons.

But since one cannot see electrons, or radio waves, (just their alleged effects on instruments), one might presuppose there is only circumstantial evidence for their existence.

'Lectronics is magick to most people: they pull out the knob of a telly, and poof! pictures and sound. They have absolutely no idea how it happens other than the correct ritual movements. (Pointing a magic "wand" [remote] and pushing a button, or getting up and pushing or pulling one.)

While I understand how a telly works, I doubt I could put it into language a non-technical person could fully understand; from his point of view I am just mumbling arcane and occult knowledge.

That and I have government permits that allow me to practice the rituals of ham radio and ship and aircraft radio and radar operation and repair, when I am not working on a new bodice-ripper.
