:::: God and logic define nature, not mathematical elegance. We have to observe first, and then come up with the best math to describe the observations. There is no logical problem to 2.0000001 here. Indeed, I find it implausible to expect that exponent to be precisely 2 for our calculating convenience.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 00:22, 2 October 2009 (EDT)

::: I am afraid we will have to agree to disagree on this one. Is it '''possible''' that the exponent is slightly more or less than 2? Of course it is, although the difference would be amazingly small for us not to have noticed it by now. Is it likely? Well as I've said, we'll have to agree to disagree.
