Frances to Michael and others... You had written this text recently under another topic. It has been roughly reworked by me for my clarity. The content has been listed by me for purposes of analysis. Perhaps some additional comments might be offered on the key terms in each line. For example, does 1.metaphysical include original nothingness, or is there a substantial difference between 2.stuff and 4.things.
------ 1. On metaphysical 2. stuff in the 3. quantum field of the world, 4. things of 5. energy 6. act in certain 7. limited 8. regions such that at a 9. macroscopic level they 10. maintain a 11. persistent 12. stability over a 13. duration of time that 14. allows a 15. perceiver to 16. concur that these things have 17. form, that these forms 18. exhibit certain 19. aspects that are 20. called 21. essential, that they exhibit 22. arrangements of 23. properties that can be called 24. qualities, that by the 25. similarities of qualities and 26. essences in different 27. persistent 28. quantum regions, such as things a person can 29. define, a 30. category that 31. contains them, and that by 32. perceiving two or more 33. entities one can 34. interpret their juxtaposition or collocation as a 35. relation. There are persistent aspects of all that energy in the quantum field that are 36. sufficiently stable that different 37. observers can perceive the same properties. That is, an observer can form mental 38. visions or 39. notions of categories and essences and qualities and relations, yet the 40. causal 41. stimulators or motivators of these 42. thoughts do 43. exist independently of the observer, and they persist. ------
