Hurrah!!! You edited an existing message before you wrote another one. Will wonders never cease?
So your local/non-local applies only to geometry. Correct me if I'm wrong.
What about a ray? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(mathematics)#Ray
One end has a end point while the other extends into infinity. Opps, I meant to say non-finite for you doronshadmi. Since the point is local (location known), how is the rest of the ray? Local or non-local?
You are right about that part, it is wrong.
I fixed it in http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5235905&postcount=6267.
But here it is again with a better version:
The minimal form of total finite (Locality) is a point (a 0-dim element).
The minimal form of total non-finite (Non-locality) is an edgeless line (a 1-dim element).
A line segment is the minimal non-total finite form, and it is the result of Non-locality\Locality linkage.
Given an arbitrary segment along the edgeless line, non-finite extrapolation between a pair of points is defined in terms of "farer w.r.t that line segment (there is no maxima because no segment can be an edgeless line).
Given an arbitrary segment along the edgeless line, non-finite interpolation between a pair of points is defined in terms of "closer w.r.t that line segment (there is no minima because no segment can be a single point).
Minima and maxima can be found only in the case of finite interpolation or extrapolation w.r.t that line segment.
The difference between finite\infinite interpolation\extrapolation is clearly shown by the 0.999… example in post http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5223529&postcount=6164.
