Oh, and by the way. There is a third alternative, you know?

Locating yourself on earth is a fundamental, practical problem. But GPS wouldn’t work without relativistic corrections and quantum devices, such as tunnel diodes.

And of course, the biggest error of all is believing engineering methods can solve non-engineering problems.

I am trying to get my son to read some of your posts, because you both have incredible abilities of eliminating that box from which we all reside in one way or another.

I consider it a fact that the universe exists, I consider it to be true that the ingredients, such as space, mass, and energy, are fundamental ingredients that make up the universe.

Regardless of what opinion or belief anyone may have about the origin of the fundamental ingredients, it does not change the fact/truth of their existence.

I believe that the said fundamental ingredients came into existence in a manner that is described in the Bible verses of Genesis.
The reason that I believe this; is wrapped within the formula E=(U/K)C.
I derived that formula from reading Genesis.

I also suspect that your understanding capacity and the maturity of the mind is able to comprehend the meaning of the formula. (especially if you get some hints from someone that knows what it is all about.)

Although the microelectronics guys are lighting lamps and boldly moving into that territory. Better them than me.

Professional physicists aren’t normally “fuzzy brained.” They know quite well that quantum reality isn’t the one we live in every day. A real cat will be alive or dead inside that box whether you open it or not. It’s the “fuzzy brained” types that try to expand atomic uncertainty into reality.

The world is chock full of realities that don’t change. The tensile strength of a specific metal under specific conditions. Atomic weights. Molecular bond characteristics.

The primary nature of human beings.

The list is endless, and it creates a solid enough base for intelligent beings to live on, if they take the effort to observe, experiment, and reason.

Nobody is stupid enough to believe we know all the realities of the universe, that we’ve measured them all to the utmost possibility, or that mistakes in our observation or interpretation never happen. But the reality out there is still what it is. Science is the confidence that while we can never reach perfect knowledge, like the speed of light, we can keep approaching it step by step.

In the engineering field again, on any number of materials charts, you can see strange things happening on the far ends of curves that people had no idea about a hundred years ago. But that didn’t mean they weren’t there.
