admires without understanding

Robin, there's lots of physics in skating. The balance, for example, and keeping it. You know it intuitively, even if you don't know that you do!

Egg Beaters don't really make good scrambled eggs. Hmph.

a) In a maximum of 1,500 words, compare the Einsteinian view of quantum physics with Neils Bohr's position. For extra credit, include an analogy between Platonism and Aristotlean ontology.

b) Does the famous Schrodinger's Cat thought-experiment apply in situations in which a human being is placed in the box? For extra credit, put yourself in a box with decaying radioactive material and observe your own eigenstate.

c) (Multiple choice) In light of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, would you argue that (a) this is true, (b) this is true, or (c)?

d) Bell's Theorem holds that any subatomic quantum material can pass information to another subatomic quantum material regardless of spatial considerations that affect classical physical relationships. With this in mind, is it (a) awesome or (b) ridiculously awesome that Nilly studies this stuff for a living?

Corwood! What is the date of Abe's birthday? Is it tomorrow?

[Edit: and now, after I actally, you know, read your post, I'm totally in love with it and wanna take it home with me and pet it and call it Goerge.]

[And, for the record, I learned to use that last sentence on b.org! It was so much more complicated than integrals.]

It's tomorrow! Wow, I can't believe you knew that! Go team Nilly!

Nilly, you are the sweetest ever.

I don't think those periods are necessary either.

My coder's brain doesn't like me starting off with a capital letter and not ending the sentence with punctuation. Which reminds me: how does capitalisation in parentheses work? When the parenthetical is a sentence fragment, it's okay. When it's one sentence, again, I don't capitalise the first letter, nor punctuate the end. But when it's two sentences the coder-brain freaks out. I have to end the first sentence with punctuation; does that mean I have to capitalise the start? Do I have to end the final parenthetical sentence with punctuation?

b) Does the famous Schrodinger's Cat thought-experiment apply in situations in which a human being is placed in the box?

Are you driving this question with the idea of sapience or the soul? What does the human have that the cat doesn't that's relevant to the experiment?

In light of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, would you argue that (a) this is true, (b) this is true, or (c)?

I don't know.

Nilly, you are the sweetest ever.

Second that.

I didn't know that!

I sorta remembered the February thing, because it's close to the birth-date of a daughter of a friend, and looked in "Press" and checked dates and couldn't find an exact one.

[Edit:

how does capitalisation in parentheses work?

I've always wondered about that. You know that there are no capital letters in Hebrew, right?]

Egg Beaters don't really make good scrambled eggs. Hmph.

Here's what you can do to fix that. Take 3/4 cup of egg beaters, add 3/4 cup warm milk, 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup sugar, 4 cups flour, and a packet of yeast. Scamble well, let rise 1 hour, the make balls out of the mix and pack into a greased 13x9 pan in rows of four, let rise another 1/2 hour and finally bake at 400 degrees for about 18-20 minutes. When you're done you're still out of luck in the scrambled egg department, but at least you can have some really good rolls to deal with the disappointment.
