Indeed Doro, indeed... but then our worst fears about existence would
be confirmed.  But, as far as I can make out, this philosophy
business is all about worrying about what might happen when we are
not looking...  without actually seeing it happen and then being
really worried :>).

was still there when we were not experiencing it.  This is in some
ways reassuring.

but - maybe the universe would have changed *if we had looked at it :), right?
