Hi Richard Ruquist 

No, the properties are outside of spacetime, the objects
of the properties are within spacetime. You still don't get it.

 Quanta are outside of spacetime (as nonphysical probability fields)
 until detected or they hit a barrier, which puts them inside of
 spacetime (they become physical such as a photon or electron),
 since in that case one can assign a location to them at a specific time.

 Mapping refers to the perception of the monads.
 The string theory monads exist in space

 Roger does not understand my argument that the monads of string theory
 are effectively inextended despite they being uniformly distributed
 throughout the universe at a density of 10^90/cc because each monad
 maps the entire universe instantly and they collectively form a BEC.
 In addition they collectively possess Peano cosmic consciousness so
 that there is no need for a supreme monad. Richard

My understanding is that physical refers to entities in public space. For 
an entity to persist through time requires some kind of private memory and 
experience, which I would not call nonphysical but rather sensory. 

 
 Quanta are outside of spacetime (as nonphysical probability fields)
 until detected or they hit a barrier, which puts them inside of
 spacetime (they become physical such as a photon or electron),
 since in that case one can assign a location to them at a specific time.


If you have sensory physics, you don't need literal photons or electrons as 
they are the misinterpreted quantitative representations of sensory events 
through time which give rise to public space. Spacetime is nothing more 
than scopes which limit sensory perception and motor participation. 
Spacetime is not the ground of being, rather it is the gaps within which 
the Absolute monad subdivides into countless interactive local monads.
