I don't accept the old canard that "there's no such thing as a stupid question."  Here's StephenB to illustrate:

Does a person with a million concepts weigh more than a person will a thousand concepts all other things being equal? If not, why not?

Since all physical things are extended in space, does that mean that the concept of a large physical thing, such as a galaxy, takes up more room in the head than the concept of a smaller physical thing, such as a horse? If not, why not?
