Aah, but you see we are designed to have limited senses to prevent exactly that catastrophe. quote: Originally posted by Mandos: Speak for yourself!
So, if you're denying that your knowledge is limited by your limited senses, or if you are denying that you have limited senses, then, you will very soon reach system failure, if you haven't got there already. And oh yea, E.

Let us label any arbitary eigenstate |P>.Anti-|P> presumably means the antisymmetric form, -|P>. This excludes being able to "see" the universe from a boson's point of view, because anti-|P> would yield |P>, as they are symmetric under inversion. So, from the point of view of the lonely electron, its antisymmetric partner, |P>, is its spatial brother-in-arms. I blame my quantum mechanics midterm tomorrow for this attack of geekiness.

Okay, so if P is all propositions then it is necessarily both P and not P, and as Rasmus said, anything follows from that. Anything at all! So nothing I write can be wrong!So P, being the party of the first part, is the preposterous proposition of the past participle, partitioning P, the passive pronouncement from P, the pious protest. The positional pendulum of P pertaining to personal parties of the first part, is a priori pedantic, and thus precluded in our proof. Yeah, I dig this new math.
