The "laws of physics" are not a static thing, in terms of history. One can say the "laws of physics" are in 2019 "The Standard Model" (about 40 years old now) and maybe some others like electromagnetism. Before 1900 there was no quantum mechanics that was a part of "laws of physics". There are also chemical and neurobiological "laws" that have become a part of science that also address "neurons and other cells". The "laws of physics" may be different in 2119 than in 2019. What we "list" as "laws of physics" changes over time. - pt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
