Hey Al! Slow down, you have very good ideas. I sort of understand your concept, Have you ever thought of the "now" as a single point in time; and space is composed of events occuring in their relative "now" time relative to you, propagated to you in your "now", however because of the propagation rate, through a time gradent of the occurence of the event it will be in your past for all events relative to your "now" and each event, relative to other events can only present their occurence in the past relative to each other and to you. This builds a present for you in your "now" and through probility creates a future from the present. This uses only 3 dimensions of time. Simply put space is relative 3 dimensional time as observed from the present. This builds the number of events and drives entropy. The basic difference between present and a "now" is the "now" is the instantaneous single point with out a past or future. Sort of like the past builds a memory. Events with interaction delay in time gradent presented to observer builds past. Just think about it.
