Unfortunately seeing something is not proof of its existance. Optical illusions being a case in point, or perhaps even magicians tricks.
Optical illusions are proof that our brain has 'limitations' of perception and perhaps even some bad wiring. Even drugs can easily change reality for the observer. We are ceating our own 'matrix, so to speak.
The observer makes something exist - to the observer. Its ALL relative to the observer.
Relality as you percieve it is a function of your mind, not of reality. Mathmatics is shedding some light on just how different reality seems to 'its' perception.
This forum is an interpretation, first by a computer, then by you. It is the computer algorithms and your personal understanding which pulls it all together into the form you call a thread. Take away the computer processing, the observers and all you have are bits on a hard drive 'beach'.
Yes they are 1 and 0's but remember - there is no such thing as a '1'. That is a construct of our mind.
Great thread - too bad it doesn't exist.
