[John Grehan]

Or, one might say that all events ARE spatio-temporal. John Grehan

  All events occur in a spatio-temporal context and
>there are infinite other events happening simultaneously.  We find
evidence of
>many of these events and look for a "pattern" that suggests some common
>causality.  And, the word pattern should not be a problem.  All of science
can
>be viewed as pattern recognition.
