Great Uncle Kenneth's Theory

Yesterday afternoon over tea Wilson explained his Great Uncle Kenneth's Theory of Reality (or The Kenneth Vermilingua Unified Theory of Reality, as his Great Uncle Kenneth always referred to it). (I wonder, is Kenneth even a Costa Rican name? W assures me that it is the 29th most popular boy's name in Costa Rica, and he knows about these things!)

According to this theory, everything is made of tiny sub-microscopic, indivisible hard particles manufactured by the ants. These fundamental particles his Great Uncle called 'Antoms.' There are also some sub-antomic particles, he conjectured, but these were mostly detached bits of ants' legs etc which fall off during the antom manufacturing process. 

None of this makes any sense to me whatsoever but honestly, is Wilson's Uncle Ken's theory any less likely that that everything comes into existence only when you look at it?

As John Lennon said, 'The more real you get, the more unreal the world gets.' If that's not a Theory of Reality I don't know what is. But then, I've never actually seen John Lennon, so perhaps he never existed…
