    About this ebook

    Einstein was right about the Block Universe, as all at once, but there is a more to it, of there being no absolutes, everything relative to but itself, and so it cannot be affected by anything outside of it, and, it, thus, just is, making it eternal, with infinite scenarios, one of which is ours. The key, as it turns out, is for 'time' to be able to progress, and that is of the initial, extreme grouping order of the Beginning of time as drawn by the blended, symmetry order of the End.

    Austin began writing for real around the age of forty, a respite from working as an Information Engineer in the field of Computer Science, doing programming, an art, as it turned out. He calls himself a humanist, and is one who enjoys the liberal arts, utilizing science, for it pervades every discipline. He is currently retired and lives in the mountains of Poughquag, NY, near the Appalachian Trail. He enjoys tennis, writing, fun, humor, thinking, sleeping, poetry, music, dining, travel, romance, reading, swimming, and life.

      The Final Answer to Everything - Austin P. Torney

      The Final Answer

      By Austin P. Torney

      Copyright 2013 Austin P. Torney

      Smashwords Edition

      — Absolute vs. Relative —

      There can be no absolute None or One;

      This forces the relative in-between.

      The None isn’t ‘there’ nor become here;

      Thus One cannot be, with None outside.

      — ‘One’ as an Absolute Fails Even More —

      So, we can’t step into what isn’t there,

      Nor can the One expand into None,

      Nor can there be spaces of None

      Within the universe of a One.

      — Relativity —

      Absolute time, space, and motion

      Are impossible, which forces relative frames

      Of the fractionals/fractals of

      Infinite variations of quanta.

      — Already There —

      Light’s full speed in a true vacuum

      Of no time and no space is as ‘infinite’,

      For it is already everywhere;

      In other words: everywhere in no time.

      — The Zero-Point as Extended —

      This point of creation/annihilation

      Is extended into a faux reality,

      Both by finite consciousness and by

      Light slowed by virtual particles pairs.

      — Light/Matter —

      Light’s photons colliding makes for

      Electrons and positrons, and vice-versa,

      With the forward-time of photons being

      Canceled by the backward-time gravitons.

      — Phantasmal Being —

      Each ‘now’ that’s created and recreated

      Over the various relative quanta

      Has really already happened, coming, going,

      And never ever returning, gone in a flash.

      — Nether-Nor —

      So, neither absolute solidity

      Nor absolute vacuity can be,

      Leaving relativism as a necessity,

      For we do have sensory experience.

      — The Play —

      Our ‘reality’ is as a flip-book’s pages turning,

      The
