After all this time, the physics community cannot get its mind around intangibility...

And which community discovered these phenomena, and exactly what were they doing as they studied them? Nearly everything you own that uses electricity is designed by people versed in QM. How is it that they don't have their minds around it.

No argument. The physicists have been able to employ quantum mechanical theory and math of do wondrous electronic things. It is far-and-away the most productive scientific discovery in the history of mankind.

But for reference, here is the quote again ...

After all this time, the physics community cannot get its mind around intangibility...

... and I will let it stand unchanged because Man was able to use fire to his benefit thousands of years before he understood it in scientific terms. We can learn to use a tool but that does not mean we understand how it works.
