One reason why that is probably not true is because there are less positrons but if it were true they should number the same as electrons, right?

But if electrons are moving along the same "time direction" as we are and positrons are moving in the opposite "direction" then wouldn't we expect there to be less protons? As we can't measure the protons that already "passed" us? And we would measure more electrons as a some/many/all of the existing electrons are traveling alongside us?

I think you may have put more thought into this than Feynman. But then he probably had someone waiting for him in bed...

I know! Horrible isn't it? I just can't help it, thinking about stuff is actually fun for me... so embarrassing!

It was more a joke about how Feynman had two great loves: physics and fucking. And probably fucking more than physics.

Ah I see ;) I also have two loves, but my gaming pc is too heavy to drag to bed...

Heavy means he's too fat to leave you.
