havefoundalotofrealpeople,itshouldbequiteeasytofigureout
whoareillusions.
Whilethecoreoftheatomsarepositive,theelectronsarenegative.
Therefore,alotofenergyisneededtopulltheelectronawayfromthe

however,atleastoneofthemisanillusion,perhapsboth.
Also,becauseofNewton'slawofgravity,completeatoms(i.e.couples
ofonecoreandoneelectron)willattractandbeattractedtoother
completeatoms.Oncearealcouplehasbeenmade,thiswilleasilyfind
theotherrealcouples-nottheillusions.Ourquestcanthereforebe
simplifiedbytryingtofindarealhumanbeingoftheoppositesex,and
therebyautomaticallyfindtherest.
