The Physics Of Time Corridors III

The Corridors Of Time, CHAPTER FOUR.

This is what I was trying to lead up to.

(v) Every spatial position within a corridor corresponds to a different time, not to a different place, outside the corridor. Every time outside the corridor corresponds to a different position, not to a different time, inside the corridor. Therefore, everyone who enters the corridor from a different time outside the corridor should arrive in a different position but not at a different time within the corridor. Therefore, everyone who arrives in the corridor should see others arriving from different external times all along the length of the corridor. But that is not what happens. Duration within the corridor is said to occur:

"'...on a different plane.'" (p. 32)

But what does that mean? It ducks the issue.

(vi) If Lockridge and a companion are ever separated by weeks after leaving a corridor together, then Lockridge should immediately go back into the corridor. They will be able to rendezvous because of that different plane of duration. So Storm says. By my logic, everyone who enters a corridor rendezvous there. By Storm's logic I don't know what happens.

(vii) Storm says:

"'If Brann knew that the killers of his men had entered from 1964, and found an extra conveyance here, he would know the whole story.'" (CHAPTER THREE, p. 30)

How would Brann know that anything done in the corridor had not been done by someone who had entered the corridor from an entirely different time?
