I ask because it is the closest thing I have seen to Whitehead's concept of the "actual entity" as the smallest unit of reality possible, and how certain 'conditions' can influence it to go this way or that...
Whitehead was trying to explain how 'free will' might be explained, but if a particle smaller than a quark can be influenced, maybe it can be ......ummmmm..... moved?

if, if, if....my ol' brain always sees the chain of 'ifs'.
