Oh, I’ve been drinking since the first lecture I heard on the ‘double-slit’.

But to my untutored mind, it seems to indicate - among myriad other possibilities - that an observer somehow *determines* what ‘happens’.

(Which opens up even more mind-boggling issues...)

Dude, It’s a parlor trick. Nothing more.

ROFL!!!

Yeah I love reading about that stuff.

That wacky thing where particles can be incredibly far apart yet what happens to one will instantly happen to the other also...

OK...

Either there is a string-like connection between the two made of something we can’t see or detect yet...

Or we are really living in one big illusion and who the heck knows what’s real? :)

I like the Last Thursday Theory

It was started as an insult to religions but some scientists said it’s just as plausible as some other idea.

It goes like this..there was nothing before last Thursday...and everything you remember was planted in your mind and everything, including you, was created last Thursday. :)
