*As I understand the MUH, it states that every well defined mathematical form or function is reified, or instantiated, or manifested concretely in the physical universe (assuming such a thing exists, which Bruno denies). I contend that plane waves are iindeed well defined mathematical objects which are NOT reified, NOT instantiated, and NOT manifested concretely in the physical universe. THEREFORE, the MUH is falsified. Period. AG* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
