One day, while driving, Heisenberg was stopped by a police car.

“Do you know how fast you were going?” asked the cop.

“No, but I know where I am.” he replied...................

No worries, I’ll just use one of these:

Sounds like this is a bit late to the party. I thought this was well-established by mathematical physics long ago.

Interesting. I’ve wondered about the Uncertainty Principle but every time I got close to understanding it, it got away from me

“Say my name!”

[mikrofon]

But are they really sure they've found a substantial proof ??

[tpmintx]

Heisenberg? Is that you?

Sorry, I could not help myself...

what is Heisenberg cooking these days . . ?

Quantum mechanics requires that we devise approximate joint measurements

Theoreticians have it easy.

Just plug in a decimal here or an integer there and keep on keepin' on.

I’m reserving judgement until I get Sheldon Cooper’s take on it.
