> BBella asks in what way QM reality is separate from ours. Maybe the answer is that it's not. Maybe we simply have no way of reaching beyond our subjective perceptions, and so at least for now we have no way of grasping all the realities around us. But animal perceptions show clearly that there are realities beyond those we ourselves can perceive, and perhaps (very tentative!) these may also be emissions absorbed by a "mysterious extra sense" in some humans that underlies what we call psychic experiences. Is that what you're getting at, BBella?-dhw, yes, I am trying to wrap my mind around the idea of a separated Quantum Layer of reality that is outside our own. All along, as I've studied QM, I've imagined it as a layer of reality that is as integral and as real to the physical reality as our unseen cells are to our physical body (only thing I can think of to compare). Just because we can't see something doesn't mean it's not there or that it's not just as real as our physical reality. If our physical reality actually emanates from the QR, which I suspect is so, I would think the QR is more real than our physical reality (if there is any qualitative differences, which I suspect there isn't). It is more that our perspective is limited by our sight and mind.
