Aristotle's place is where the outer boundary of the object and the inner boundary of the surroundings meet...

That's the basics...
so let's say you're in a pool, completely immersed in water...
once you leave the pool, what happens? Aristotle says that the place still remains...but I can't seem to understand it...
Also...how can you distinguish from the surroundings and the object...
can a portion of the pool be the object and be the same with the surroundings? (the water is the object AND surrounding?)

dunno if anyone can understand all this...but i KNOW we have a couple philosophy majors here...so...

HELP ME OUT....PLEASE~~

The problem with philosophy is that it's inherently meaningless. Just ask Moonbeam..
