Classical view of Old Man and slightly distorted. How do you explain
chemical structure then? How does your "Hamiltonian" explain that?

Remember (I'm trying to prevent you adding to your blunders, G=0 in
QM.

Old Man was jst classified as a realist. He must now adhere to
absolute space. If not, Old Man is "eclective".
