Hi, sorry if this is a daft question, but it's something I've often wondered about. why is it that the extra spatial dimensions in string theory have to be 'wrapped up' rather than extended like the 3 we experience? it seems to be that since we are 3D beings, 3 dimensions is the limitation of our perception - in the same way a 2D lifeform would have no perception of the 'Z' axis. Just because we don't experience more than 3 space dimensions doesn't mean that they're not there, does it?
