Here's what you're doing:

grizzles: I don't understand what's going on in a proton.

Physicist: actually, we know about it very well.

grizzles: I don't understand what you're saying, and don't care to find out, so I'm just going to disagree with you and say you have no experimental evidence.

Physicist: we actually have terabytes of evidence describing the different quarks and gluons within protons and neutrons.

grizzles: I don't care, and I'd rather live in Anaximander's land of indefinites and superstition.

Are you a physicist? If so, why not post a link to your profile? Why the need for your made up dialogue instead of a substantive rebuttal containing information about your allegedly detailed knowledge of the inner workings of a proton?

BTW, you've misrepresented my position in 2/3 of your little sonnet. I said "light evidence, not no evidence" and I do care. The only substantive rebuttal I've received is from computerex and I responded to that.


Dialogue can be very useful.
