To further ire this backyard quantum physics discussion,:-) how can we wait long enough when all physicists state that in this 'pre-event' condition of 'foam' there does not yet exist time. How can there be a waiting process if there is no time in which to wait? To continue down this path one must eventually admit that some kind of agent (read intelligence) must have triggered the boom as a part of its nature.
