Is an actual circle really possible to "create"? Think about it. Take a sheet of paper in the shape of a circle. That has width, doesn't it? Effectively making it a 3D object (a cylinder). Maybe 2D objects are an illusion. Because, to be truly 2D an object must have zero mass. How can this be done? Only by sight. 2D objects (correct me if you can) are impossible to make, they just are. It's somewhat weird to think that everything the we see that is still, (to some degree) it's surface doesn't really exist. And for that matter, the object itself. P.S. I have to leave soon, so I won't go into my thoughts, but this overlaps (like so many other things) into black holes. Maybe this should also be in that forum.
