Yeah, the particularly dense have a problem here,

That would what, 7 billions of us except two usenet kooks?

understanding this,
for some strange reason, and, like I said, it doesn't seem to be
taught
in schools, so, let me rephrase:

"Nothing can't hold something."

The logic of that statement is self-explanatory. You can NOT "put"
something into nothing because there would be no "space" to "put" it
into!

Think about it, you may, eventually, catch on ... or not ...

It doesn't matter what you or me "think about it".

Or try to explain how satellite TV is distributed.

That is off on a tangent of what post I originally comment to ...

We were talking about "empty" being an impossible concept ...
"impossible" in the fact that we simply have no physical examples of
such existing ... it is only a concept at this time.

So far as we know, there has always been "something", even before the
matter of what we can see, feel and hear existed ...

Have a nice life.

I warned you, the particularly dense have a great problem in the
comprehension of the reality of things ...

Indeed. Look, you seem to be a nice sport.

I don't know what you have against the propagation of EM waves in a
vacuum. Is it ideological? Philosophical? Religious?

Most kooks that espoused your views have the decency to invent the
"aether" (or ether, if you will), that explains waves propagation in a
"vacuum".

(Hint: the way to convince is not to disparage a given theory, but to
actually, positively provide a working alternative theory!)

So: how do satellite TV receive their signals?

Good luck for that Nobel prize!
