Perhaps I should have said "I don't even believe that information is transferred external to the particles themselves". IOW I don't believe there is any independent link between the particles at all. > ><><><><><> > >That is the claim of the "standard quantum physics" proponent. ...so not quite this I think ;). > >Let's try this: > >Creation of an particle anti-particle pair results in a dual vortex in >the BCE which is separated by distance by propagation . . . sort of an >hour glass with the top part going right to Scully and left to Mulder >with opposite rotations in the BEC. > >However, since the spin is anti-evident, the direction of the >(opposing) vortices are not defined until someone with a timecone >(worldline) observes them.

Mulder and Scully have always been correlated since the particles were created, irrespective of whether or not any one looks. It's just that without looking no one knows which has which spin. No magic, no spooky action at a distance required. Once the spin of one is determined, the spin of the other is known by *inference*. Imagine I have a box full of those plastic balls used in chemistry classes to represent atoms. All the balls in the box are connected in pairs, one blue ball connected to one red ball. We both turn our backs while I a third party takes a pair of balls out of the box, and breaks it into two separate balls. You get one and I get the other. You look at the ball in your hand and see that it is blue. What color ball have I been given? According to modern QM, the moment you observed that your ball was blue, quantum entanglement turned my ball into a red one! :> Perhaps now you can understand why my faith in modern physics is on somewhat shaky ground. (Perhaps utter contempt would be a more accurate description ).
