Nothing

Admin1: Dr. Gravytee, you have no doubt heard about the Pluto brouhaha. Wouldn't you say it is a tempest in a teacup?

Dr. Gravytee: I would say it is more like infinite oscillations in deSitter vacuum.

A1: That's a lot of nothing happenning in nothing, is it not?

Dr. G: Remember that in alphysics nothing does not mean nothing.

A1: You mean in alphysics nothing means nothing.

Dr. G: In alphysics nothing is a spectrum.

A1: You are also fond of saying that in alphysics zero is a spectrum stretching from minus infinity to plus infinity. What is the alphysical relation between nothing and zero?

Dr. G: Your question contains your answer: In alphysics infinity connects zero and nothing.

A1: Infinity in alphysics has all the shades of purple haze, does it not?

Dr. G: Don't confuse zero with nothing. Zero does not mean nothing in high alphysics although there exists legitimate spacetimes where in the Newtonian limit zero reduces to nothing. But that's the kind of trivial solution that would only impress an undergraduate.

A1: Thank you Dr. Gravytee.

Dr. G: Nothing at all.
