Thirty one years ago, Dick Feynman told me about his 'sum over histories' version of quantum mechanics. "The electron does anything it likes', he said. "It goes in any direction at any speed, forward or backward in time, however it likes, and then you add up all the amplitudes and it gives you the wave-function." I said to him, "You're crazy." But he wasn't. --- Freeman J. Dyson, 'Some Strangeness in the Proportion' 1980 Brent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
