Dear Hitoshi,
I have been reading the conversation with Ben with earnest. I am still
wondering if the difficulty of
the background radiation would be resolved by looking at the statistical
aspects of LS interactions, not as an abstraction, but as how individual
LSs observe other LS while ranging over the set Q. There is still the
possibility of using Weyl's ideas here. My concern lies in how we
resolve the "Obler's paradox" within Local System
theory.(http://sciweb.onysd.wednet.edu/sciweb/astronomy/astrophysics/txt/txtoble2.html)

Are these decompositions unique?
Onward to the Unknown,
