Talk:Space

In physics, space is a coordinate system? I don't agree at all; it's an entity on which coordinate systems may (locally) be placed, and even that fact isn't central to what it is, only to how it's modelled in modern theories. I haven't started editing physics entries, and I'm not going to start now yet either, but I couldn't let this go by without registering disapproval. — Toby Bartels (a mathematical physicist sticking to the math pages for now — things are so much more clear cut there), Monday, June 24, 2002
