    Hol on... you are mixing up your own terminology all over the place. Applying arbitrary labels to some concepts doesn't mean you can suddenly apply, say, electromagnetic theory to dark matter.

    Nowhere did you prove that the "super atom" is actually a single atom. In fact, logic would dictate that, despite being packed in the space normally reserved for one atom, it is still however many of them that exist. (Well, that or some strange amalgam of energy, that's entirely possible, but at any rate, that means using properties of atoms makes even less sense.) Therefore, you can't apply anything relating to a single atom.

    Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. Calling normal energy "positive" and dark energy "negative" makes about as much sense as calling quarks "truth" or "beauty." May work just to be able to put a name on the thing, but there's no relation between the labels and he functionings. You can't start applying any amount of electromagnetic theory to this thing here, no more than I can start talking about chromatology in the "beauty" of a quark.

    I have 1 liter of water. I know that water has a density of 1kg/L. Well... there's really only one thing I can figure for the mass of that water right there.

    That sounds an awful lot like the "God did it, we can't understand it" argument...

    That kind old lady stopped the rain for us.
    She said it would only make us cold, and miserable, and sick.
    We thanked her and hugged her and she walked away smiling warmly.
    I miss the puddles...
