Well , it ' s speculation now . We don ' t know for sure . They could announce a replacement A 7 IIIA 7 RIIIA 7 SIII not just a possible A 9 . <| sep |> I ' m doing it anyway because it ' ll free me from my PMI . But it ' s damn annoying , especially because I had to wait weeks for the appraisal . <| sep |> Shit , they were in Leicester ? ! Damn , I ' m only in Nottingham . <| sep |> Damn , My mom was a hardass , but at the very least , your mother had the good sense to teach you self respect and to stand up for yourself . I had no such parenting . Every time I had an ounceling of pride in myself , it would get shot down . <| sep |> I think that ' s a complete oversimplification , though , taking what are complicated concepts and dumbing them down , then extrapolating from that dumbed down version in ways that turn out to be incorrect . None of that space is empty . It ' s all filled by the wave functions of the particles you describe . Some parts have less of these wave functions , but none of it or at least very little is empty at all . When you condense them down e . g . in a neutron star or black hole , you ' re confining the wave functions , and shrinking them . You ' re not getting rid of empty space . To risk another gross simplification , it ' s like taking a pile of sand and building it into a higher column . It takes up less horizontal space , but it takes something to confine and hold it in that smaller area . And it doesn ' t mean you ' ve squeezed out empty space to do so .
