So by my second year in HS, I could discuss it, but I don't think I really understood it. Then I read this tale that told of a lowly knight who saves the king's only daughter. The king offers him land which the lad turns down only asking for a chess board and Beam Me Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507215843874160767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31959155.post-83341792295197323822013-05-27T16:51:12.821-05:002013-05-27T16:51:12.821-05:00In high school, many years before knowing the name...In high school, many years before knowing the names of Schrodinger and Heisenberg, our math professor did the "wall" exercise in class.

Like the tree falling in the woods it has nothing to do with trees and cats, but that confuses the issue further. They close the short film with "absurdity of quantum mechanics". I have to take issue with that, at least in practice. I felt that he was giving us hand holds on a very Beam Me Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507215843874160767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31959155.post-47611902757423127142013-01-21T11:24:32.326-05:002013-01-21T11:24:32.326-05:00For those, like me, who need this joke explained t...For those, like me, who need this joke explained to them:<br /><br />http://www.kurzweilai.net/schrodingers-catdennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200738796358710732noreply@blogger.com
