The two Vancouvers are less than 500km apart.

The Logic-Defying Double-Slit Experiment Is Even Weirder Than You Thought

So maybe Australia does exist as long as we don't look at it. Or maybe if we have look at it. We need a physicist/mathematician to look into this. Or we can just keep on taking pictures and forget about the whole thing.

I've known about this experiment for a least 30 years now.... but photography still occupies most of my time. The experiment doesn't really change anything on a non-quantum level. I don't care if my photons are waves or particals, detectable or undetectable, changed by me looking at them or unchanged, as long as they keep helping me make pictures. I feel kind of the same about Australia.

How about an engineer?
Maybe the world's most famous engineer?

What...?

He has an engineering degree, and he's recognized world over.

Totally awesome, although Tess' only comment is "I can't believe you're watching it twice."

I'm betting you cannot convince Tess that Norm is normal.

Ya, don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen. That will be fatal.

Just send the flat-earthers to university and all will be good:

Well, true,

although the hierarchy at PAC would probably rankle a bit at being called a mere "boys high school" , they get a bit sensitive about their status. I went to the one a bit further up the Parade.
