52. Are you familiar with 'spooky action at a distance'?

I suspect the energy differential between positive and negative particles is something that won't have a 'from' type answer at all, like SAAAD. Quantum physics is a whole different rule set, wholly alien environment, to our visible natural world.

It's going to take some time to fully flesh it out. We don't even know the full complement of subatomic particles yet.
More progress is made every day.
