justcamel, You may be right, but it's in the same sense that people of various religious may be right. It's a completely untestable claim that you're making. If we can't see it, can't touch it, can't experience it, can't measure it, and it doesn't affect us in any way, then my question to you is: Who Cares? Right or wrong, it's of no consequence to us and it's beyond our capabilities. In that sense, you really are disconnected from reality *even if you are right*. This isn't a personal slam against you, so please don't take it that way. I'm just explaining how I see it, and how (I think) Mike sees it, too.
