All punnery aside... like all seekers-of-truth, I opt for every weak
bubble to be burst, the sooner the better. Do you have a reference for
that?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect
"Overview
The Casimir effect can be understood by the idea that the presence of
conducting metals and dielectrics alter the vacuum expectation value of
the energy of the electromagnetic field. Since the value of this energy
depends on the shapes and positions of the conductors and dielectrics,
the Casimir effect manifests itself as a force between such objects."
But, there seems to be more to it than this. It seems Casimir is
involved in all particle exchanges.
