Dear Robert I think you obviously need to go on oxygen at sea level, never mind 10,000 feet! Cheers Roger Druce

Subject: [Aus-soaring] Quantum mechanics and Alice Hi My son Rory (study computational physics in Melbourne) sent me a URL to a very interesting piece of recent research. Without boring you all with the entire article, here is the relevant extract... "Entanglement allows particles to have a much closer relationship than is possible in classical physics. For example, two photons can be entangled such that if one is horizontally polarized, the other is always vertically polarized, and vice versa, no matter how far apart they are. In quantum teleportation, complete information about the quantum state of a particle is instantaneously transferred by the sender, who is usually called Alice, to a receiver called Bob." So - maybe we just need to polish up our photon entanglement find a Bob to sit at the finish line, and Alice will teleport us over the line at the Nationals! -- Robert Hart [EMAIL PROTECTED] +61 (0)438 385 533 Brisbane, Australia http://www.hart.wattle.id.au _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
