The first post talked about the beginning and how you can never really be at the beginning if you believe in the repeating patterns of fractal geometry.  While that maybe true, we as thinking human beings have to start some where!  The best place to start would be with the smallest object defined by humans.  That would be the quantum(*1).

(*1) If you know of something smaller, please send me (a link of) the scientifically ‘published’ article defining (declaring) such an object.
