I love when these conversations start because I love learning from you Steven. I like to dabble in particle physics and find, as you say, QED seems to fit the experimental data, not only that but it has allowed some of most amazing predictions that have also since been verified with utterly astonishing accuracy.

The quote goes extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I like to think this is true and I tend to believe that QED is frequently providing extraordinary evidence of its accuracy..

Another of my favourite quotes...
Physics is a lot like sex.. Sure it has some practical applications but that's not why we do it.

5points to whoever know the source of that one.
