    Hi Scott

    Geoffrey Read is claiming that most
    of these so-called particles and
    properties are conceptual extrapolations
    and suppositions for which there is either
    no empirical evidence or not very good
    evidence. Scientists actually recognise this
    by often calling them virtual particles.
    Geoffrey says that these virtual particles have
    been 'assumed' to avoid the reality of action at
    a distance.

    regards
    David Morey
