Hi Taro; Re liberals and quantum mechanics... It's hard to understand the liberal mind but maybe they believe that if they don't understand something, then nobody else can understand it either. I really have difficulty comprehending why someone would be willing to publicly debate QM with someone who's published in the subject. I just don't get it. Especially when their whole argument against conservatives is that we don't understand science. What they've proved is that their beliefs about science are not scientific. Instead, like most of the public, they're entirely informed by crap written for the public and have no ability to think critically on the subject. They take what they read at face value (but only if it is compatible with their politics). They like the idea that "anything can happen" so they believe it without having a clue as to what it really means. And they certainly have no idea how the mathematics of the HUP works; liberals are more in touch with their emotions and don't understand numbers so well. :( I suppose koan is asking his SIL whether or not, given a state vector in a Hilbert space, does there always exist another state vector orthogonal to it, LOL. Too bad his SIL is an atmospheric "scientist" and is lucky if he's taken two QM classes in his life. How many "atmospheric scientists" do I see in grad classes in QM? That would be "zero", LOL. Every now and then a chemistry or math student shows up but that's about it. -- Carl
