Even if Arithmetic "explains" (all) Matter, exactly in the sense of your theory: >From a pragmatic POV, to make things (new computers, robots, vehicles, foods, ... ) there is no such thing as *arithmetics stores* to go to and get what is needed to build things out of. You have to go to *materials stores* to actually get what is needed to make anything. @philipthrift -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
