In the last decade, El Naschie published a series of seminal papers where he introduced the idea of conjugate complex time and developed his famous fractal is* 00 ' space-time theory, which reconciles general relativity with quantum mechanics by formulating both theories in the context of a transfinite geometry. In this paper, we put together ingredients of El Naschie's theory that reopen in a theoretically consistent manner the possibility of faster-than-light particles and clarify the question of the instantaneous correlations envisaged in numerous EPR-like experiments.
