Some time back, I was working on a game/concept idea with the VARA team - it had to do with dreams, lucid dreaming, and dream as reality. One of the core ideas was that a particular frame of reference that an observer was in had an "amount" of reality to it based on the number of consensual participant observers in that frame. In other words: the more observers agreed on a particular reality, the more real it was.

The unit of measure for any particular amount of reality... was a Caprion. The value was entirely relative and volatile, and it may actually fluctuate constantly, but the quantum unit was going to be called a Caprion.

When the time comes and people start talking about this kind of metaphysics, they should all know that there's already a name for the unit of measure - the Caprion. Just saying.

Sorry but I already dubbed that term a Coxion 34 years ago.. Way before you, heck before I was even born. Damn I'm good.

I accept that there should be a competing standard for the Caprion, just like there is with English versus Metric. We just have to figure out the conversion factor...
