Edgar,
What you mean by 'reality' is different from what Bill! means by
'reality'. In a recent post, Bill! has stated in some detail the meaning
he attaches to the word 'reality. You may want to define what you mean
by 'reality'. Then, we may be able to see how and why you two are in
disagreement over 'reality'.

exist....
