Nice try, tim.  It is at least rotationally conservative, but you completely
left out the relativistic SU(5) group component to ensure that the Lorenz
transformation remains time conservative.  Thus, no Taylor expansion
allowed.  We gotta have that - how else would the duct tape work?  I mean it
wouldn't be sticky then would it, since you just decided that no covalent
bonds can form?  Ee << -Ew!  hell, we wouldn't even be able to think about
it, with all our receptors being so non-receptive, as a result.  Thank god
for covalent bonds - seeing as how Smalltalk relies on them so heavily.
