“Inflation is really like drugging the baby universe with speed. The supercool union of the hitherto unfriendly gods was blessed by amphetamine, and this made the universe inflate rather than just expand.

“For instance, the blood of hibernating arctic squirrels may supercool to minus 3 degrees, when it would normally congeal. The supercooled blood still flows, since it remains a liquid, but the slightest disturbance will cause it to freeze, killing the squirrel; therefore, you should not disturb hibernating arctic squirrels.” ShouldMayStillsCausesBloodDegreesFlowRemainsKillingInstanceLiquidFreezeDisturbanceSquirrelsArcticMinus Book:Faster Than The Speed Of Light: The Story of a Scientific Speculation Source: Faster Than The Speed Of Light: The Story of a Scientific Speculation
