Shrug. Then there's no meaning to the word. Anything could exist in
theory. The physical laws of the universe could undergo a radical
change tomorrow. As we're not aware of the complete laws of the
universe (if there is such a thing at all), there is no way to know
this won't happen. If the mere possibility of something means it is
'real' then I do not find myself capable of thinking of anything that
isn't real, in which case the word has no meaning and this argument is
over.
