willravel,
i personally agree with what i think you're saying - like I said I think it's semantics, with the caveat that we may indeed find out one day that cilia are in fact moving in order to affect sub-nanoscopic quantum leaps, which are related to the tendency of heavenly bodies to rotate around black holes or some such craziness, and the movement of the cell by the cilia is only a secondary effect in the grand scheme of things. or that the cells are actually caused to move by the release of currently undetectable particles I'll call pigions, and the movement of the cilia is only an effect of this movement. Or that they are only waving to each other and saying "Wassupppppp" and that a small tongue-like appendage is displayed when they do so. Ok, I'm being foolish now. Like I said, in the strict sense, all knowledge is just a theory. It's just a question of how useful that theory is. we can never know anything as an absolute "oh yes huh it is so" fact. we just use that term for shorthand, because some theories seem to hold so well in normal circumstances that we inherently assume within language. At least, that's the way I understand it.
