assistant: Richard Meic discussing "Cat in the Box"
with me...
Is that a reflex response for everytime you get a red face? As I state above,
you've clearly demonstrated that you do not understand the "cat in the box"
scenario and as such any conclusions you've drawn are incorrect as a result.
Which once again displays your lack of knowledge on the subject. Do you know
what 'decoherence' is WRT QED and why it is not accepted by all scientists?
No, because you claimed to have only have a vague recollection of an
experiment that is central to understanding QED, and not only because it was
the central feature of Dr. Gribbens book.
IOWs you been caught out again.
Being honest will change my mind Richard.
I hope you and your ego live happily ever after because I don't care if I've
got one or zero chances left to talk to you. I seriously doubt if you've got
anything to contribute anyway judging by what I've read of you so far.
