<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">It is time to step back; take a deep breath and self-analyze, “What do I really know and what are behind our individual interpreting platforms?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The persistent problem is that we are trying model cosmological reality using minute fractions of observables; which are further colored by our evolution-success driven cultural limitation. The unknown cosmic
ocean is still lying ahead; we have just ventured to appreciate that walking on the beach gives us pleasant feelings!

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The beauty of the evolved human mind (consciousness), through the DNA-driven neural network, is that our perceptions and interpretations are necessarily diverse and different. This diversity is essential for
our progressive (step-wise) evolution because we all perceive some aspects of the ontological reality mixed with our subjective realities. This has been serving us well. We are evolving and knowing more and more. Current confusions definitely imply another
major breakthrough is coming and hence our discussion and the conference forum are fruitful.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">It is very easy to recognize our limits in communicating what we perceive to be the truth. Consider any well-known painting – say, the “Starry Night”. All those subtle colors you are “seeing”, are your purely
personal (neural net) interpretations based upon received red, green and blue bands of frequencies on the retina. Photons are not colored by the creator. Your and my perceptions of the diverse hues of colors can never be articulated quantitatively and objectively
(at least, not yet). They exist as subjective interpretations with subtle difference for ever within our neural network.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Of course “seeing personal color” and analyzing billions of instrument-registered data tracks in LCH, agreed upon by thousands of otherwise subjective minds, are not exactly the same. However, we seek cultural
harmony and “belonging to”; which creates our “punctuated paradigms” to lead us to higher and better paradigms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>
I respect your desire to reduce things to what can be known, the onta. I think you. as a theorist, are misguided as to the set of things that can be known. That is, just what the onta are. One can (usually) measure energies and momenta quite precisely. One
can measure fields. One cannot (usually) measure positions or times. Energies and momenta are usually well defined at the elementary particle level. Accordingly, positions and times are not. You may not like this, but it is the case.<br>
<br>
I am not just saying this as something I have read or heard. I know it as I have been involved, first hand, in such experiments. I am telling you that is what you can know. Please feel free to give me (experimental) counter-examples.<br>
<br>
As Viv says - you have to start from what you know -not would you like to be the case.<br>

Sorry if this comes as bad news.<br>

nothing! We can only infer "facts" at those scales. The "observation" involves a long string of physical and SOCIAL processes, each of which muddies the waters. Maybe we are best advised to adhear as best possible to formal-logic so as to avoid simple contradictions
or inconsistencies. Avoiding patent misuse of terminology or the uncritical use of terms given their histroical pedagree should be a good first shot. One glaring example is the use of the term "field." It was not at the start intended to be a label of some
kind of onta or stuff. It was a abstraction to portray the force per unit charge as it would be experienced by a "test charge" at a given position and given a source charge. Thus, where there is no test (or source) charge, there is no force and therefore
no field---in sharp contrast to the current popular use of the term as if fields also exist even when there is no source charge. Theories build on this kind of talking/thinking cannot help but be cultural mythology: snazzy, fun but nonsense!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

you want to introduce a new concept, at least base it on experimental observation. You can't ignore experimental facts because they don't fit your theory. Fit your theory to experimental observation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black">The other reason I haven't joined in is because I see so many participants "going off at a tangent", trying to justify their theory to others. If your theory is
good, all you have to do is show how it fits observation and preferably make an experimentally testable prediction. If you want to see what others have done with their theories you need look no further than cosmologists explanation of the universe. It goes
something like this:-<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black">"I<i>n the beginning there was nothing (or something we don't know) and it exploded in a Big Bang. When it settled down over 13.8 billion years later, it had a
1 : 10^^60 chance of being this stable and requires 24 times the mass of the observable universe to explain its observed properties."</i> Reworded, it means theoretical cosmologists explanation for the universe differs from the observed universe by 24 times
the mass of the observed universe, not to mention the other 10^^60 non observable universes. Seriously folks, an error of 24 times the mass of the observable universe is bad enough, let alone 10^^60 other non observable universes. Errors of this magnitude
are due to mathematicians extending their calculations to areas where the physics behind them is not established. The worst part is they are proud of their theory that has errors that large. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black">They aren't the only physicists with errors that large. Astronomers detect a universe with an energy density of ≈ 10^^-10 Joule per cubic metre (J/m^^3). Quantum
mechanics requires an energy density ≈ 10^^120 times that to get some of their calculations correct. An impartial evaluation of quantum mechanics shows it is based upon wave equations. For the uninitiated, a wave extends some distance, expressed mathematically
as from minus infinity to plus infinity. An unbiased observer would suggest that if you can't get an expression that matches observation when you have a position that extends between plus and minus infinity and you have 10^^120 more variables to play with
than are observed to exist, there is no hope for you. Then physicists wonder why their funding for their studies is being reduced? <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black">Back to my original comment on observation. If you wan't to introduce a new concept, you should base it upon some observed physical principle. Then show how known
physical properties enable the mathematics associated with that concept to match known physical properties of, in this case, the electron. When you have gone through a few properties, you should make a prediction or two that can be tested experimentally. Only
then should it be considered that you have some merit in your theory.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

physical facts, claiming working theories like special relativity are wrong (probably because they don't understand them) without replacing them with a workable theory, and similar. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

(or she) will tell you where you are going wrong. If you listen to the advice and follow it, you will progress. Your "friend" who agrees with you and says "yes" frequently is your worst enemy. He (or she) will encourage you on the same path towards going "round

density of the universe come about because their practitioners don't want to listen to others who say they must be wrong. Trying to convince others in this group discussion that your theory is correct will never replace showing it is correct by matching a
dozen properties of the electron and making a few predictions that can be tested experimentally. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

The Maxwell equations describe electro-magnetic waves. Both electric and magnetic fields can be measured. Are you really serious that you think they are a "fiction"?<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><br>

reinterpreted (i.e., alternate verbage found without changing any of the math) so as to tell a fully, if (somewhat) hetrodoxical, story. See #11 on<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.Nonloco-Physics.0catch.com">www.Nonloco-Physics.0catch.com</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

fiction wrought by Fourier analysis. The only real physical part is an "interaction", which mnight as well be thought of an absract string between charges. Also, neutrons have electric multipole moments; i.e., they are totally neutral but not charge-free. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
