>Newtonian mechanics (and gravity) are a special-case approximation of relativistic theories. To me that's no biggie, but to some philosophers I've spoken to take the attitude that "approximately right is still wrong". Well, those philosophers should stop expecting a world measured in terms of continuous variables to have a discrete causal topology.
