We derive the exact expectation value and standard deviation for the d
imensionality of Cantorian spacetime. Connections to time symmetry bre
aking, information and the generalization of complex numbers are consi
dered. Finally a link between general relativity and Cantorian spaceti
me is proposed which amounts to the claim that fractalization is the o
rigin of gravity. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights re
