@garbados What you think of as "physical laws" have no definite existence. Just as the laws that we call "thermodynamics" can be derived from the statistical analysis of the motions of individual molecules of matter, other "laws" are simply the average behavior observed in huge number of interacting particles. Under the right conditions, even on the macroscopic level, these averages do not apply, and we get anomalous large-scale behavior that seems to "break" these laws.

@mona @garbados enjoying your quantum conversation :) (these are things I think about a lot, wrote a chapter about in my first (non-fiction) book, and are crucial to my 2nd book (SF) I'm writing now ... but they are still hard to translate into understandable, readable, fun fiction
