That reminds me of my statement to physicist which he did not understand. I stated - If something(anything) moves, everything moves.
Seems perfectly reasonable, or at least conceivable to me, AndrewC. For everything is "connected" to everything else by virtue of their mutual/collective participation in the fields that altogether constitute all of life. So if something moves, it moves its "neighbor," and the moving "neighbor" moves what it touches, and movement is thus propagated to the furthest reaches of the relevant field(s). The only potential constraint seems to be an entity's access to a "free energy" store/source that could lead to a countering/dampening effect of that propagation somewhere along the line of transmission....
Of course, I'm just speculating here.
