It turns out that there is a level of uncertainty to everything, nothing can be known to an arbitrarily precise number. It turns out that things like Plank's constant set an absolute limit on what can be known. It is a very, very small limit I will grant you, but a lot of very small uncertainties do add up : )

Agreed LeGrande. And very well put! Thank you ever so much for your observation!

It might not be possible for a human brain to grasp the totallity of reality..
Five senses and logic displayed by human language could be inhibited..
Science fiction MUST be logical to the human mind, reality need not be logical at all..

Human arrogance could challenge that though..

“but a lot of very small uncertainties do add up”

In the sciences, uncertainty decreases with the number of repeateable experiments, in other words, uncertainties deminish by the inverse ration of the number of repititions.

Imprecisions can add up (as happens in cumputers), but not uncertainties.

If you think uncertainties can “add up,” can you give an example of how that would happen?
