Well, certainly if you find a clock on the heath and get excited then I wouldn't be surprised that this animation gets you thinking... Someone pointed out to me that the animation makes things look much too "direct" and "smooth". As if a helicopter was going intensionally from A to B. Indeed, it's clear that the animation uses a bit of artistic license: The cell is certainly a spacious place if you live at the right power of ten. But it's not that "empty" (but this way, the visuals are so much less distracting... otherwise it would be hard to see the forest for the trees). However, I have to agree that showing more of the randomness and "jitter" in some of the smooth motions would have made the case for ID misuses of this much harder.. Maybe a link to some visualization of actual simulations (or actual observations!) would help set the record straight...Powers-Of-Tenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17610825523003957542noreply@blogger.com
