Nobody knows what will happen when things get super small because our two best physical theories, Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity, disagree with each other. Most believe that something will prevent a zero volume from ever occurring, but nobody knows what that "something" is. * *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* 23x -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
