    Scientists sometimes take lessons from kids, and this is an interesting experiment where they created a chip with two tiny metal drums side-by-side, and put them in the microwave, then put the microwave inside the freezer to drop the temperature towards absolute zero, and see what happens. They proved that, for quanta, E=MC(2)=Time=Money, because time costs energy, and there's no such thing as a free lunch.

    The problem is, the Quantum Zeno Effect can be seen at the same temperature, where entangled quanta won't change in any way whatsoever, if you peek at them at just the right moment. If God plays peek-a-boo, he's unbeatable, because it requires energy just to see if he's playing peek-a-boo.
