V 261
Change/changing/event/Lewis: Not all events involve change. We cannot afford to count the constancies (Nonchanges) as non-events.
They are needed in the causal explanation.
E.g. atomic decay: abrupt change, consists of constancies.
The causal story that explains the decay is without changes.
Constancy: is needed to explain the memory, perception, existence in time ((s) co-existence).
Lewis: the terminology is not critical again.
>Causal explanation/Lewis, >Causality/Lewis, >Event/Lewis, >Cause/Lewis.
