This immediately suggests possible and interesting uses in
cooling/refrigeration, if this "scientific discovery" holds water ...

Entangled particles may be a tunneling of sorts through
space-time. It has been proved to my satisfaction that
reality is non-local.

can't say i fully understand it all , but i really enjoy reading these
posts and at least was able to research and study this material /topics
which usually leads me to stumble on other interesting /related stuff

thanks all

Presumably, since our "local" reality is non-local,
the entire universe may be just another version of
"Flatland". There seems to be a shortcut not only
across space but across time (assuming time actually
exists).

Well said, and that ain't the half of it; a lot of amateurs are a lot
stranger than I am comfortable with! :-)

What do you expect? They probably contain strange quarks.

To me, it is quite clear, we have only kludged together "theories" and

along), we use these under the burden of great errors and unsolved

Doesn't it make complete sense for a single photon
to be able to pass through two slits at once and
interfere with itself on the other side? Even a
Buckyball made from many carbon atoms can do the
same thing. :-0

I agree and like your flatland anaolgy. I think if we are not careful we can
be as narrow-minded about the nature of the universe as those who thought
the only elements were earth wind water and fire or Earth was the center of
the universe. We are not that much closer to the truth than they were.

Hi Jimmie,

Their contemporaries thought that trees could enter into their dreams
and explain the mysteries of life - hence the legacy of "knock on
wood" which a lot of this ersatz hero worship correspondence is so
like.

Let's see, a link to a National Enquirer story headlines a story about
a surgeon who grafts a pig's head onto Paris Hilton, and the poster
suddenly crows like a medical authority:
"Amazing how Lister and Pasteur were just so many
country bumpkin scientists!
If Professor Christiaan Barnard was such a whiz
with heart transplants, he would have done this years ago."

Richard:

Now you have my interest!

Did this alleged operation result in Paris being any more attractive to
50+ year old males, such as myself?
