X-Message-Number: 21080 From: "michaelprice" <> References: <> Subject: Inflexibility of the human mind Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2003 05:59:53 -0000 Both Ettinger and Donaldson continue to believe that the issue of unobserved particle subspecies (and thence particle identity) hinges on our ability to measure their attributes. I have repeatedly pointed out that this is false. Since they persist in their assertions without rebutting my observation: "the occupancy number of electron orbitals is an absolute measure of the electron species number, not a reflection of our knowledge of electron attributes." further dialogue seems pointless, which will have to stand as testament to the inflexibility of the human mind. As Hal 9000 said, "this conversation can serve no further purpose."
