Re: Quotes don't mention Sub-atomic Minerals

The quotes are from the book as they relate to iodine... you will have to get the book I guess to see how it ties into sub-atomic minerals...

In the meantime, here is more for you:

"THE EARTH

-- is made of -- rocks -- which are made of -- minerals -- which are made of -- elements -- which are made of -- atoms -- which are made of -- protons, neutrons, & electrons (BTW, just because we THINK these are the smallest pieces of matter, does not make it so; we are still discovering things like planets and such are we not?)
-- which are made of -- subatomic particles -- which are made of -- who knows what "

Interesting bit in here;

This is interesting on patent law...

It would be refreshing to see people thinking, searching, researching, studying for themselves at some point and NOT asking for, or requiring spoon feeding of data. Maybe that is asking too much from men\women with chemically compromised minds. Even more refreshing would be these individuals expanding our current thought with theories and ideas based on the extrapolation\expansion of available data.

Please do not read things about subatomic particles, electrons, protons, and neutrons and limit your understanding to the current dead end of science. This is where\why MANY scientists\people stop making forward progress, or, continue to make the same mistakes over and over.

We know that electrons can leave one element and bond, move onto another... forming another substance... why not other forms of subatomic particles, like the neutron or proton? What other "subatomic" particles form the atom that we do not know about? Do not let the idea that man made Science has the be all end all answer to these questions... they are not absolutes.

When one reads about subatomic particles, light, light speed, and magnetics (attraction) seem to be involved... there is so much more to study and understand.
