I appreciate that Smolin is extending and modifying Leibniz’s idea of monads but really NO ONE told him that maybe a Theory of Nads isn’t the right name? Also there is a part of my brain that is forever in middle school.

Needs a song
All the philosophy lads,
Waxing lyrical about their nads,
Single, plural, monads or pairs,
But all their nads are Leibniz's, so unfair,
Thinking of nads, thinking of nads,
Ruminating, cogitating, always about nads
Waxing their nads, waxing their nads,
Telling everyone 'Look at monads'!
