And yet ....... the very semi-conductors (chips.. diodes) in your computer, that you used to type your post ... were first visualised, conceived, built and tested under the umbrella of QM ....

According to Classical maths ... tunnel diodes do not exist and can't exist ... and yet these impossibilities work .... in a tunnel diode 'something' appears outside the box. And this was used to build early smoke detectors !

If there was a fire, and this detector alerted you, would you refuse to heed it because you don't believe it works.

You use the products of QM every single day ...

i think it is around 25% (feel free to correct this figure) of the worlds industry uses and builds QM designed products.....

Is it OK to say you believe the QM designed flight control system of a Boeing 747 is crap when your flying .... or do you only say that from the ground ...

Business is not concerned with Science or religion unless they can be turned to profitable use .... Ask them . They will tell you ."well ... its all very weird .... but look at the size of my bank balance"

If it is adopted and used by the world so successfully that we take it for granted.... shouldn't it be given some benefit of doubt..

Probably yours .... Greg
