Good. Very good. And the last thing I wanted to mention were muons. You've already mentioned them. I'm not sure if this counts in your mind, but the muon is basically the heavier cousin of the electron. And then there's the tau, which is the heavier cousin of that. And one can ask, why are there three copies of all these particles? Is that one of the puzzles we worry about?
