>From the September issue of Science 82:
"... the proton attracts friends, other subatomic particles, seemingly
from nowhere. And these friends have friends. What you end up with is
a little community surrounding the proton .... Incidentally, this
unplanned picnic that springs up around subatomic particles is quaintly
called the vacuum."
