		<description>You know, one matter I found over the years is not to underestimate people's capactity for imbecility.  However, I do think that's changed somewhat in recent times thanks to the sharing of great information like this.</description>

		<description>Ideas, too, are like seeds in that they may lie dormant in the form of words, music, or art and begin grown again when experienced. Yea, I just got out of working in the garden and your right so many things are just so interconnected it's actually nutty. And while were on that topic, thanks for being out there professing the kind of nuttiness that I love. It's good to know I'm not alone...once in a while.</description>

		<description>I learned recently that a Hungarian, a French and a German Scientist corroborated Einstein's theory of relativity. (His special theory, I believe. The one he expressed as E=MC2.) Essentially, they mathematically conjured up proof that 95% of the weight of an atom isn't matter. According to their calculations, gluons themselves have zero mass, yet, they exist nonetheless. Thus, the measure of the "dance" between gluons and quarks is what constitutes the total weight of an atom. Strongly suggesting that mass and energy are one in the same. Like space and time.

So, if you look at, say, your kitchen table, for instance. You might conclude that it is a static, inanimate hunk of matter. However, according to what could now be referred to as the "law of relativity," due to the mathematical substantiation of Einstein's postulate, your kitchen table is, contrarily, as active as a 5 year old on a school playground.

With that, one could conclude that ideas, which are a product of human cognition, are every bit as active or "energetic" as a kitchen table. Perhaps even more so. 

Seems like an open and shut case to me.

Then again, what the *bleep* do we know?</description>
