                           %CONCEPTUAL REALIZATIONS 850508

     Some  realities are conceptual realizations.    Apart
from human conceptions the realities would have no status.
Human  conceptions are human creations often used to  help
humans   cope   with  situations  which  humans  wish   to
understand,   predict and control.   Success in such  wish
fulfillment  tends  to  make  humans  believe  that  their
concepts are thereby proven to be objectively real;  i.e.,
correspond  to  realities which are independent  of  human
creation.     When  all  "competent"   people  agree  upon
something  having  reality independently of their  actions
they feel safe in regarding it as objectively real.   Such
a  conception and realization promotes a sense of security
in  the  reality  of that which comes to  be  regarded  as
objectively real.

     Since the quality of poetry,  music,  art,  political
systems,   theology,  etc.  is often under contention  few
people  tend  to regard such quality as objectively  real.
Virtually no "competent"  scientists engage in significant
disagreement  about  the quantity of energy  in  specified
physical  processes,  and so such scientists  regard  such
quantities  of energy to be objectively real.    Neutrinos
which  were  invented to balance laws of  conservation  of
such  objectively  real measurable  quantities  have  also
joined  the  ranks of conceptual realizations  which  have
come  to enjoy the status of being regarded by "competent"
scientists    as   objective   realities    which    exist
independently of human conceptual creations.

     There  are  very few people who have  personally  had
experiences   which  justify  considering   neutrinos   as
objective  realities.    The rest of us  learn  to  regard
neutrinos   as   objective  realities   exclusively   upon
testimony  of  specialists whom we can in no way  hope  to
check-up on.  Such specialists can not hope to cause us to
have personal sensory experiences of neutrinos adequate to
justify our believing in neutrinos as objective  realities
on  the basis of our primary experiences.   What  then  of
quarks, charm, color, strangeness, etc.  In what sense are
they   objectively   real?    They  certainly  are   human
creations.  Are they independent of human realizations?
