And wine made out of water! A mere quantum-mechanistic tunnel effect, that'd happen anyway if you were prepared to wait zillions of years. As if the turning of sunlight into wine, by means of vines and grapes and time and enzymes, wasn't a thousand times more impressive and happened all the time..."

Simple acknowledgment and validation of your complaint is sometimes all that is needed. Without it, you're left frustrated or upset."
