Wheeled died in 2008 at the age of 98.

His "meme" of "quantum foam" may guarantee his immortality, no rapture
required.... At least if we are allowed to periodically update it - ala
Dirac's sea. 

IOW both of these were brilliant concepts were so far ahead of their time
that they need to be periodically refreshed for the younger generation, in
terms of meshing with current scientific advances.

Although the original details were different - Wheeler can now be read wrt
Dirac, as interpreted by Hotson to show that the "epo field" is essentially
"quantum foam".

The Dirac sea is a model of the vacuum as an infinite sea of particles with
negative energy that goes back to 1930, but has been reinterpreted by Donald
Hotson in recent times - to incorporate new discoveries. 

The positron, the antimatter counterpart of the electron, was originally
conceived of as a hole in the Dirac sea, well before its experimental
discovery in 1932.

Positronium consists of an electron and a positron bound together as a
virtual atom - whereas hydrogen consists of an electron and a proton, and
there is a great deal of mathematical similarity.

The energy levels of positronium are 6.8eV whereas those for hydrogen are
13.6eV. The 2:1 ratio is not coincidental.
