Better even to consider it as "infra-hoc"- retrospectivity not being the
point but alternation on the situation. I like to think that people
experienced in QuantumMech and StatMech such as myself, Markus, and
probably others, have no problem with such a concept. I seem to recall
there was a discussion of the concept at length a while back. I can't
remember the details, but there was a member of this list (not Craig) who
couldn't quite clasp the handle.
