Understood. I was just thinking of it from the standpoint of what we can 
see, not from the standpoint of the philosophy as to why we can see it 
or what we can do with it. But you're right. the philosophy is always 
important.

I'd love to run into a few folks here who care about such things. 
Conversations in this region have a tendency to get really boring, 
really quickly. The only things most people around here are willing to 
discuss are physical trivialities and things I'm reasonably certain 
don't exist.
