I believe that there is reality whether someone is there to observe it or not. Otherwise, there is NULL. I don't believe in NULL, so there must be a third reality. Of course, if I don't exist, and you, an ignorant believer in NULL, is the single person in the universe, then there can only be one reality. Fortunately, I know NULL does not exist, so there are three.
