Turns out that scientists have been uncovering evidence that this kind of thing is happening all the time and with great complexity.  Natalie Angier of the New York Times has written a great summary of these fascinating findings which is quite eye-opening (did your eyes just open wide?):

The theory of relativity showed us that time and space are intertwined. To which our smarty-pants body might well reply: Tell me something I didn’t already know, Einstein.
