Thanks Ian: I'll try to deal with the other parts of your e-mail when I have a little more time; but I thought I'd ask about your view on the usefulness, or not, of the references to quantum mechanics. I don't understand how/why you think that weakens my argument. Could you give me the gist of your argument here? I don't see how you reach that conclusion; You might be right, but I can't say. I just need to understand your point.
