"Time, however, totally orders all events, even those unrelated"<p>Really? Given how fast computers are, and the global nature of the Internet, I thought it is easily possible for them to be separated by more distance than light can travel in a relevant amount of time.<p>"there is no unique ordering of spacelike events--events that happen in order 1 > 2 > 3 in frame A may happen in order 2 > 1 > 3 in frame B. In fact, for any two spacelike separated events, it is possible to find a reference frame where you can reverse the order in which they happen."<p><a href="https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/75763/can-special-relativity-distort-the-relative-order-in-which-events-occur" rel="nofollow">https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/75763/can-specia...</a>
