I wasn�t saying that it is a problem right now, but I might become a problem if you want to solve several problems. (BTW. Isn�t it possible to see a momentum as a form of velocity) (A sort of analogy to seeing sound as a form of movement) (Or maby this is just nonsense? :). >Again, you are incorrect here. Something can be a point, yet its position >can still be uncertain. > What can I say. I just read everything I can get my hands on and are especially fond of Stephen Hawking. I�m not saying I understand this all yet, but I try to. (Come back in a year or four, when i have finished by study in physics.) My impression is that if something is very, very small (a point) you know exactly where it is. Or isn�t that what you where meaning. What i do undertand is that you can�t know place and speed at the same time, because one affects the other and by conducting measurements you in fact disrupt the exactness of that mewasurement. So..... Ivo
