Quoting "Alpha and Omega", by Charles Seife:

"Empty space is an incredibly complex substance,
... Quantum physicists are forced to conclude
that the vacuum isn't truly empty. It is seething
with particles and energy."

"Casimir effect: The ability of the ZERO-POINT
ENERGY, the particles constantly winking in and
out of existence, to exert a force. Predicted
by Dutch physicist Hendrik Casimir, the Casimir
effect has been measured."

Reckon all quantum physicists are senile?

I reckon most are not although some may be. However, Seif is currently
an associate professor in New York University's Journalism Department
with a Masters in Math. He is nowhere near the caliber of a quantum
physicist which would render your point moot, would it not?
