I meant compared to the realworld applications of neurobiology, theoretical physics is what's the word I'm looking for? hmm, cute.

我是指跟神经生物学在现实中的应用相比 理论物理就是怎么说好呢 小巫见大巫。

But science does havesomething to say here, and sometimes purely imaginativequestions are great tools for helping us think about how the realworld works.

但是在这个问题上我们还是可以寻求科学的答案。很多时候像这种纯粹异想天开的问题却能够帮助我们更好地思考，更好地认识这个世界。
