much ado about nothing..
Nothing denotes no thing. There is Nothing or there is something. If there were nothing we would not be here to ponder it. It being nothing. Oh here we go again!

Re: Explanations and more
If I may................The "because" is a big one.
No one likes when a parent says "because" I said so.
However, it may very well come down to that. At some level, reality may be bound to some basic, simplistic statement.
That is just the way it is man.

Reality is in the observations, not the electrons.
Dr. Werner Heisenberg, after spending the evening immersed in quantum mechanics:
"I remember discussions with Bohr which went through many hours till very late at night and ended almost in despair; and when at the end of the discussion I went alone for a walk in the neighboring park I repeated to myself again and again the question: Can nature possibly be so absurd as it seemed to us in these atomic experiments?"
Someone once said that anyone who feels they fully understand Quantum mechanics, does not.
