I spent a looong looong time reading this discussion wondering why people kept invoking the Victorian poet Algernon Swinburne.
flea is me.
We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"...huh. I wonder if anyone has posted any porn."
I hear Swinburne's well-hung....

"Is that Schrodinger's cat?" doesn't that imply the cat has already been looked at?
If the cat was looked at, the looker can tell definitely if it's alive or dead, though, right?
Or maybe just the box that the cat is/isn't in was looked at?
It can be a nice box with Schrodinger's note on it saying politely "Cat inside. Its status will require revolution in the world of physics. Open at your own risk. Oh, and there's some poison and a bit of radioactive stuff inside, too."

Maybe the lighting was bad?

My favorite Schrodinger quote on Quantum Mechanics (specifically Born's Probability Wave Interpretation): "I don't like it, and I'm sorry I ever had anything to do with it."

Yeah, I was summing up the kerfuffles with a resounding, "...huh. I wonder if anyone has posted any porn."
I had a college friend who liked to compare philosophy to a five foot penis. Sure it's impressive, but not very useful in a practical sense.
