A "vacuum-less void" is not as strange as it first appears. In the universe, there are no real voids or vacuums. Matter pops in and out of existence like magic. You could just as well have said "a void-less vacuum"--which isn't really what you meant to say so this exercise of mine is pointless. Actually, everything is pointless. To have a point would imply a singularity. It would be like trying to divide by '0' but you can't really divide by '0'; it would be pointless....doh!!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
