We agree, I presume, that it takes no "objective" time. It happens at right angles to Silk's normal timeline. We are three dimensional creatures moving involuntarily in a fourth dimension. This motion, and this dimension are seen as time. The plenum we inhabit is thus four dimensional (three spacelike and two timelike dimensions). This is embedded within a plenum that consists of these four, one other spacelike and one other timelike dimension, and a seventh dimension within which creatures of this order are in involuntary motion. This is 'time for them' ('them' are the creatures that I generally refer to as "angels or small-g gods"). Mr Big Nose, of course, is beyond this level as much as he is beyond our level. Silk's timeline has been turned 90 degrees. . --
