0:00 Yeah, fine. That's a layered way of doing it. Not viable, then. Not viable. It seems then that I either understand the solution to this problem, or have a different solution, or... I don't see that one is necessarily practicable. I mean... It seems like a normal problem. And the point of view is that it's less of an invariance. That seems like a solution to the problem. It seems to be viable, imagining it as a problem which actually is. Well, no, I think the problem is to find the invariant quantities, not the positive ones. I didn't say that. He's not saying they're either. Well, that's what I thought most of my talk was about, how you find the invariant quantities. Exactly, of course. Yes, I agree with you that what you said, that the answer is not one. This is the second part of what he said we could include because there are two things to include.
