Incidentally,

Why the cheap shot about where I went to school?  As if that makes a
difference.  I didn't realize you liked listening to yourself talk.  I kept
the concept simplistic intentionally.  There is no such thing as a hollow
balloon.  There is no such thing as stick and ball chemistry.  Electrons are
everywhere and nowhere.  It is called an analogy.  Benzene is not a hexagon
with a circle inside it.  There is only energy, and its behavior.

Oh, you only like words with quotes.  Talk to yourself.  I don't care.  You
don't want to talk to me.
