You should present your work as an article here on ToeQuest.
As used in physics, “dimension” is the quantitative measure of a physical property. Inferring that dimension refers to alternate realities or phenomena beyond our spatial realm is just absurd science. It is these type of interpretations of QM that create the bizarre and ridiculous views. |

The highest form of compliment is imitation. There is no time in my schedule for taking action against a hovel of people who have indeed plagiarized my work, which has been copyrighted and sold out in what is now nine internationally distributed small press editions, since 1959. 'Gravity is the 4th dimension' was graffitti on the subway walls of New York City, and all over a dozen large west coast cities, as early as 1971. It is particularly well known in Berkeley, California; especially on the University of California at Berkeley campus. It was distributed and sold out in small press in over 41 California bookstores. My sponsors invariably profited, establishing a track record for sales which I wasn't interested in making a personal profit from. (Google Miles Mathis: The Third Wave - who publishes all of his magnificent work on the net without cost to the reader. The same is true of Ms. Karene Jade Howie and Geoff Halsburg, regarding 'The Wave Structure of Matter').
The first two chapters of Mark McCutcheon's 'The Final Theory' are conspicuously lifted out of my work. I agree with you entirely that such activity can only benefit the proved. I consider all such pilfering efforts as complimentary to and a tonic for my work - they're helping get the word out. As I have said before, all the eggs that are being laid on the other side of the road regarding my material will eventually find their way home - all the quicker if any of the purloiners receive enough publicity. Of course I'm complimented by the qualified pirates.
Your allusion to the definition for dimensions is not contradicted relative to the definition I discovered nearly fifty years ago. It is hardly an 'inference'. It corroborates the definitions of geometry and mathematics. Ostensibly you're not familiar enough with my work to argue with it.
A condensed work in progress of the material at issue here is

By no means do I refer to realities or phenomena beyond our spatial realm (on the contrary), although in later chapters I do some speculation on QM, among other issues - which is clearly identified as speculation. Your unprepared critique of the material at issue is presumptuous, if not bizarre and ridiculous. You are called upon to make your case against my unprecedented recognition of gravity, electricity and magnetism as the 4th, 5th, & 6th dimensions.
