dhw: He appears to have made the amazing discovery that words can mean whatever you want them to mean. "Nothing" now means something, or perhaps even everything. The possibilities of this game are endless, but I think I'll stick to cricket, in which all the players know that "in" means in, and "out" means out, and "nought" means nought.

> Romansh: Krauss: "But I don't really give a damn what "nothing" means to philosophers; I care about the "nothing" of reality."-But the 'nothing of reality' is something, quantum potentiality in our space-time. And I thought Krauss likes philosophers. Rom, he can't be defended in his own words.
And like all of us he has no idea what preceded this universe.
