   Yeah, that's really cool. Isn't the argument: if there exists a magnetic monopole anywhere in the universe, and angular momentum is quantized, then charge must also be quantized. Nothing has made me wish for magnetic monopoles mor

   I'll see your Mangetic Monopole, and raise you a Boltzmann Brain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_brain

    I'm tired of this Buckminster Fuller / Alfred E. Neuman "What, me worry?" argument. Just because humans are clever doesn't mean we're exempt from natural and physics boundaries. To deny that is hubris to the ex
