Do you think it is possible to reason about "the Void"? Or meaningful? Or useful?Sure, it's possible to reason about anything. Whether you can arrive at something useful is an open question - one can but try. I like the late Norm Levitt's remark, "What is there? EVERYTHING! So what isn't there? NOTHING!" Or one could paraphrase Russell Standish - What is there? NOTHING! - Which is EVERYTHING!I like Russell's version, which creates more of a /frisson/. Although I assume Levitt is claiming the existence of a multiverse (EVERYTHING implies that of course).
I doubt that, Norm was rather a fan of Bohmian QM. Brent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
