Nobody is ever going to be able to get rid of the weirdness that is inherent in Quantum Mechanics. And it's an odd quirk of evolution that emotionally most bipedal hominids are not frightened by infinity,unless they think about it too deeply, but very large finite numbers are instantly and viscerally scary.* *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* rt > > *Math Proves Infinite Universes Exist — Brian Greene * > <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31NXUy0CNic> > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
