Quantum Mavericks? Say it ain't so!

Quantum mechanics is a very interesting topic to me. However, that's only because that is the way I view it. Depending on how others view it, it may be different.

I will admit, when Mr. Grdinic first warned us that our complete understanding of reality would change, I was somewhat frightened (because that's how I viewed myself!).

After watching the videos related to quantum mechanics, it took me a while to let this concept sink in. I'd like to point out, however, that in a parallel universe (which I am in at the exact same time), I understood the concept immediately! It made perfect sense; what other explanation is there for our ability to walk through walls? Back to the normal (same) universe. Once I allowed the concept to sink in a bit, there were quite a few assumptions I am now able to make about quantum mechanics, including the founders and phenomenons in nature.

So, let me start with a very obvious assumption I was able to make about the founders of quantum mechanics, no matter what parallel universe you're in. These guys were Quantum Mavericks (see picture at right). They were willing to go against what was accepted by their colleagues at the time in order spread their ideas. In fact, one of the most well known scientists of this time period, Albert Einstein, was very opposed to the theory, saying that "God does not play dice with the universe."

While many people are confused and worried about quantum mechanics, I'm taking advantage of the many loopholes I have found from it. From now on, whenever I have to solve a math problem or answer some question about moles on a chemistry quiz or test, I don't have to put any effort into it! If I don't try to solve the problem, then I must assume the answer is anything. Here's an example of how I am going to solve problems from now on:

√π = (-∞, ∞)

While quantum mechanics can seem very intense to almost everyone, I like to live by a quote of a very intelligent historical figure who will remain unnamed -- "We don't need to be intense, we've got classrooms." "Wha?! What's he talking about? Huh? That guy's crazy."

1. An intelligent historical figure? "I never get that!" or "I hate it when he does that..." He is historical. Lol great guy.

2. You stole the square root of pi from me, thief! Just kidding, obviously, but still very funny.

3. Mavericks. Parah Salin. Well done.

4. Onto the actual topic, you know how I feel about quantum mechanics, but I like the way you look at it, purely because it is funny and it makes more sense than it should. Yay!

1. OH-A-MUH-GOD!

2. It was a good example to use.

3. You betcha!

4. The only reason the way I look at it makes sense is because you're not thinking about it enough.

"Say it aint so Joe"-----nice job with the whole Sarah Palin comparison. What a quack. just to think she actualyl wants to run for president. I think that I would go crazy and move to Canada if she did become president. We would all become bible thumping baptists and then probably be illiterate as well. Well maybe she is literate but I am not too sure. Lets stick with Obama/ biden for now and another Obama Biden term. And then lets see well..... someone else run. Clinton?---- that is totally not relevant to science however politics relates to everything.
