I would hope that's the point of PF.

Terry, I would give you a physicists answer, but I suspect you already have in mind some pet theory or philosophy which confuses the point. So rather than go down that path (I have no interest), I suggest you do a little googling.
A better question would be, what can we measure about the electron, and/or how do we identify it relative to other fundamental particles?
Haelfix,
Thank you for your suggestion, I shall bear it in mind, I apologise if I am not phasing my questions or options in the correct scientific context or language, I've not had a scientific discussion in a long time. I have a scientific background but have lost all the jargon, when I joined the human race. - Its a jungle out there...
Bearing your question in mind,
Where can I find the top 10 - 20 properties, measurements of an electron?
10-20 Quantum Properties
10-20 Electrical and magnetic properties
Particle properties
Wave properties
10-20 Optical wave properties
10-20 electron-positron experiments
How many other fundamental particle has such a list of measurements, and yet no one using all the above facts, measurements, results can summarise or give a concise description or theoretical description of exactly what an electron is?
Where would we be without the ‘simple’ electron?
The M-theorem’s mathematical intuition is definitely correct but should it not be the turn of the physicists to use his intuition to look objectively at all possible physical interpretations of this theory from strings to the notes, which they play and the harmonics they produce – does sound need a string to propagate, once the string is plucked – why do .
We cannot precisely measure or calculate precisely the various speeds and directions in a tornado or hurricane, but I can describe their properties using Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity, singularity or black hole or point of reflection.
But while you are pondering that thought, they say a picture paints a thousand words, please take a few seconds to look at a site I found.

Think of dimensions, or leptons and baryons if you wish, as colours. Instead of three primary colours what if the was 8,9,10, 11 – or is that the screen or the cloud?
