Frank Wilczek - top physicist. From his talk 'materiality of a vacuum': "The ether has triumphed...Vacuum is material...we are fish in water...We're ethereal beings, children of the ether."
Leonard Susskind, top physicist who co-created the Holographic Principle: "...there is no sharp separation between particles and black holes'
Interesting numerical 'coincidence' that hints the proton might act as a Universal Clock / holographic hard drive since day 1 of the Big Bang
