     Imagine an  engineer  who was a flat-lander  and  was
trying  to  figure  out how a  three  dimensional  machine
worked  by watching a one dimensional X-ray motion picture
of  the machine.   (The flat-lander could not watch  a two
dimensional  projection,  because two dimensions span  the
full of the space of his consciousness.)   The flat-lander
must  be  content to look along one direction in  his  two
dimensional  space and watch a projection of  the  process
upon  the  line  orthogonal  to  the  direction  of  view.
Differences along the direction of view are ignored in the
projection,   for all elements of the process along such a
line  of view (or a parallel line of view)  are  projected
one on  top of another---onto a point along the projection
line.  Needless to say, the flat-lander engineer will have
a  difficult time understanding the workings of the  three
dimensional engineer.

     Imagine  now  an  engineer  who  works  in  the  four
dimensional   space  of  positions  and  times,   but   is
systematically    ignoring   the   dimensions   of    life
characterized by human desires, emotions, affections, etc.
Such  an engineer is viewing people as projections in much
the same way as the flat-lander engineer---and  will  have
corresponding  difficulties  understanding the way  people
behave.    To  view people along different parallel  lines
corresponds to ignoring different emotions as the emotions
of the line of view---will not help.   Projection lines do
not cut across each other, they are parallel, and end   on
points in the projection; structure along projection lines
does not show up in the projection.
