Mr. Stephen Hawking would be so very proud of you. You have reached the Event Horizon phenomenon, where space-time becomes infinitely curved.

Well, that's neither here nor there, but the point is, all we know is there are many who DIDN'T do it. Eliminating all but the culprit might take enough time that the location of the actual deed may have moved with respect to its original location as computed in the space-time continuum, more or less, if it was at rest for any period of time that we can clearly identify.

My mom always told me that if it's neither here nor there, it's not even in your underwear.

To be Southern is to understand the universe from a unique point of view.

My checking account balances prove, beyond any doubt, that things do indeed, get there.

That's an interesting thing to mention. Because of S-T's curvature, where we think of as "there" may only be our perception of there and not the actual there. The true there may be an incomprehensible number of miles away, in which case we cannot absolutely confirm it is neither here nor there. It is very sneaky!
