So /sci/, A friend and myself were discussing whether or not it is possible to throw 'sniffer dogs' of the trail of, say, a stash of illicit drugs, hidden inside ones home.

He proposed "Sealed in plastic, then submerged in water"
I proposed "Even a trace would lead the dogs to the drugs, so, if the entire house was filled with traces, the dogs would not be able to pinpoint the actual location of the stash, ie, place small flecks inside the ducted heating, and turn it on, so the whole vacinity would be drug trace positive"

Discuss.

On the off chance you're not a troll:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime

>Spacetime is usually interpreted with space being three-dimensional and time playing the role of a fourth dimension that is of a different sort from the spatial dimensions.

>In relativistic contexts, however, time cannot be separated from the three dimensions of space, because the observed rate at which time passes for an object depends on the object's velocity relative to the observer and also on the strength of intense gravitational fields, which can slow the passage of time.

I once heard a physicist describe our movement through space-time thus: the sum of our movement through space and movement through time equals the speed of light. Therefore the faster we move through space the slower we move through time and vice versa.
