It's a good thing they figured out quantum mechanics. Imagine how cold it was in the olden days when there was only classical physics!!!Well that was an interesting read, thanks

Yep RW is interesting.I guess this kind of fits here. Anyone else follow RetractionWatch? Most of their content isn't all that interesting, but this one caught my eye. I think you know why.
A peer-reviewed paper claimed a researcher was an expert in sex robots. He’s not.
3dalia/iStock What would you do if you discovered your name in a list of experts on sex robots despite having never studied sex robots? That was the situation for one rather panicked research…retractionwatch.com

Shirley if they’re not losing their tiny tools, they don’t have a problem?

Depends on if they can't lose their tiny tools due to entanglement.

That only happens when fishing or knitting.
Only the first scenario would bother me.

So fishing would be bad, but knitting would be a super position for it to occur in?

The third one could be tunneling.

Forget about the drop bears. How about Drop Crocodiles? Of course it's not absolutely certain they dropped, but then again, they were Australian, and if any place would have drop crocs, it would be there.
