Dear north:
I believe you and I are agreed with the reprise of Philsophy in this context: "Nothing begets nothing." - Hume
Along with a less directly related, but I think pertinent, submission: "The same thing cannot occupy two different spaces simultaneously". - Locke
It's always good to hear from you, north, whatever our contentions may be (We have different ways of agreeing on the 'steady state', for example).
Best regards,
- RP
