" a definition for dark energy might be that it is an energy thief,
taking energy from other sources and giving none in return. "

        I knew it, my teenager is dark energy. Who knew :)

Hi Inge,

I'll take a stab.  I'm probably off the beaten path, but what the heck
it's
Friday.  Dark energy does not need particles because it is not a true
form
of energy based on current understood "energy" definitions.  It does not
create or give off other energy, nor does it do work in order to move
objects. I think (have no evidence to support) that a definition for
dark
energy might be that it is an energy thief, taking energy from other
sources
and giving none in return.  An example would be if you were to turn the
lights off in a room.  All of the light energy is absorbed into the
surroundings and dark appears. It may be that dark energy goes against
the
first law of thermodynamics (energy is conserved) and if so may not be
an
energy at all.
