Some good links there.
Interesting stuff.

If we ever land on the Moon then we may find out even more.
:D Whistling nnocently

I remember thinking this a long time ago. How orbits of planets seem to be similar to those of electrons orbiting nucleii. However of course this is schoolboy stuff. Electrons don't orbit the nucleus. This is only a convenient way of illustrating their presence the little devils. They are more like waves. Don't take it from me. Votre el linko as they say in Esperanto.

Everything is connected to everything else in the universe at a quantum level anyway.

Does that mean I have a direct line to Nicole Kidman because since the restraining order I have had great difficulty getting into her bathroom before the collar around my neck begins to tighten. Perhaps I could teleport in? Thanks for your time. Concerned of Croyden.

You and Nicole Kidman (and indeed any other A-list Hollywood actresses) are intimately connected at a quantum level. Therefore when you get a stiffy, Nicole Kidman automatically is affected. Similarly, if I get a stiffy, a woman in Runcorn automatically thinks up a new knob gag.

I like this theory. Publish and be damned I say!

Nicole Kidman? Lousy actress and ugly to boot.

She's attractive, in a weird way. Bit boney though.

Come on Boffins!
Let's crack this tonight.

If I recall correctly
Wasn't there a Quantum Physics experiment where they had to stop it because it seemed like the particles knew they were part of an experiment?

:O

So these tiny particles had more insight than the dweebs on the show Space Cadets then? What does this say about the human race?

On an unrelated note, how come the moon is exactly the right size and distance between the Earth and the Sun that a total solar eclipse can occur? What are the chances, eh? Bit fishy, isn't it? It's got bells on guv'nor!

It's God's work, you idiot!

Well that's cleared that one up, Boffins!

Right. Always taught outdated bollocks at school. At A-level they told us the 2-8-8 model was a lie, now the s,p,d shells are still simplified... But then waves and other phenomena can now all be explained by quantum physics too so guess it all just comes down to that.

Whaddya mean? Like, the particles would spell out "I know what you're doing" or summat?

I'll try to find the story.
But perhaps I haven't explained it very well as I don't really understand it myself.
