for one, it was Albert Einstein who said "energy cannot be created or
destroyed". i assume he is a trustworthy person on this subject.
second, i think we can all agree that "useful" does not mean "harness". i
used "useful" to describe energy's usefulness, or our dependence on it.
there is A LOT about life and physics in general that we don't know. i don't
see why it is bizarre to spit out theories and ideas about unproven
subjects, does that upset you? jeeez. i'm sorry.

This is bizarre.
It deviates from the usual definition of "useful".
For that matter, it deviates from the usual definition
of "definition",
and from the way definitions are used in science.
Indeed this whole thread is bizarre.
Could we please redirect this thread?
Could we please try to base the discussion on measurable physical
quantities and on trusted physical theories?
If not, why not?
