Explains that the measure of electrical response comes in a one-sized package, one quantum, and that a particle can never posses a fractional quantity of charge. Emphasizes that atoms are quantum-rigid and that the permanence of the world depends of the fact that no energy store can change by more than its smallest quantum.
