…the internal to the atom orbiting electron idea, reminds me of
Einstein declaring that a uniform gravitational field is equivalent to
acceleration. What is a uniform gravitational field? It is a field
that acts on all objects in the same way. Gravity has us tied to the
whipping post as well. Instead of asking why all objects fall at the
same rate Einstein said we can view it as though the ground rises up
to meet all objects, This is the weak equivalence principle, and it is
weak. And then you read that General Relativity governs the
cosmological world while quantum mechanics governs the microscopic
world. All I can say about that is God help us from being governed...
