Does the following theorem hold:

x and y are continuants, rel a ternary relation with time as its third argument, and t a one-dimensional temporal region (i.e. spatially extended).

Given

x rel y at t

then

for all t', if t' temporal part of t, then x rel y at t'

Example: MonaLisa located_in Louvre at 2012

Entails: MonaLisa located_in Louvre at 2012-06-14 MonaLisa located_in Louvre at 2012-06-14-13:55 MonaLisa located_in Louvre at 2012-06-14-13:55:23 etc.
