You're just tickling Antonio, Michael. We all know monopoles don't exist. But hold on, why could a proton then not be considered a monopole? If they spin they would have a magnetic moment but if not is it the balance in favor of the extra up quark that gives them their positive charge? If so, why does a neutron not have a net negative charge? They must spin then, right? And neutrons are neutral because the electrons have the MONOPOLEy on the negative charge? Am I making sense? Suppose if we took away all the electrons and protons and kept the neutrons would we then be left with a net negatively charged Universe? Is all that dark-matter then anti-matter? Is that where it is, Antonio?
