        That's a wild concept... I like it.  :)
        Perhaps Archimedes and Terrigimar the Space-Lich should compare notes.
        Incidently, the largest sphere I ever created was Darraspace, also
known as Helliconiaspace.  It's roughly three light-years in diameter.
Anyone ever go bigger?  I'm just curious.

        Pack to the above flow idea.  I always pictured the spheres as
drifting in large clusters or groups (called galaxies) that from outside
would resemble a huge water world; the flow behaves the same way as the
water.  Think of a blueberry pancake.  The flow is the starchy part, while
the blueberries are the spheres.  (Using a thick pancake, and small
blueberries that can be completely surrounded by the starch). 
        That's sort of what Archimedes says above, actually.
        Perhaps these "pancakes" drift around the surface of this "hyper
sphere?"  Sort of like lilly-pads on gigantic pond?  No one is known to have
ever moved from one lilly-pad to another, never mind into the hypersphere.
