Dear Chas, may I call you Chas? Well, anyway, you are made up of particles. Do you exist? Maybe you are just an illusory fluctuation. In which case, you can easily be ignored.

Dear Jeff, we are all temporary fluctuations in the eternal Universe.  In a million years' time, we'll all be forgotten.

Unless we've written a book, which might be preserved and read by our remote descendants, to ponder over if they wish.

Have you written a book? Cheers, Chas

Dear Chas, I doubt that many folks these days have read "Horse-Hoeing Husbandry" by Jethro Tull. Although many will remember the ditties by the band of the same name. It all depends upon the durability of the message. How durable is your message?

Even the most obstinately ignorant cannot avoid learning when in an environment that educates.
