 That's an interesting idea, although I do have some problems with it. If
one
 completely specifies the state of an observer at a given time, then this
 already contains a notion of time as experienced by the observer. So, I
 would say that the notion of an abserver moment is more like that of a
 tangent space in General Relativity than that of a single space-time point.
