Just something from a comic called xkcd. I liked it.
Schrodinger's ComicJoke about the Schrodinger's Cat theory, which basically says that until you determine the state of something it's in every possible state at once. His specific example is:
-You lock a cat in a box (possible?).
-A small amount of radioactive material is placed in a geiger counter. The amount is sized so that in an hour, there is a 50% chance one atom will decay.
-If the atom decays, a device is rigged up to sense that and kill the cat in some way (acid or a bomb or something).
-If an hour passes, there's a 50% chance the cat will be dead. At that point the cat is both alive and dead until its state is confirmed.
It's kinda sadistic but in this case it makes for a funny comic.
EDIT-Ok sorry it wasn't funny :( I prolly shoulda put it in the comedy section but maybe it didn't belong there.
