With Feynman (path integral, or sum over histories), instead of Many Worlds, you get Multiple Histories. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_histories Spoiler alert: Only one history makes it out alive! Some physicists who can't believe in probabilities (stochasticity) - which they avoid like vampires avoid running water - like Many Worlds. - pt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
