Has someone seen tacheons? I admit, I'm a bit behind on some of the lit.
Matter out of thin space happens, but since they're virtual particles that
disintegrate (and turn back into the photons that created them) in a
fraction of a nanosecond, it's not really a factor. Unless you have a black
hole nearby, that is. Or are you talking about zero-point energy?

I was trying to leave quantum out of this. Thermodynamics alone are bad
enough. :-)
