Our commenter of the week is Gatagorra on
Olmsted on Autism: Schrodinger's Cat:
Steve is having trouble with absurdity. If Schrodinger's thought experiment is so well known as he says, then he must know it was meant to illustrate something ridiculous about quantum mechanics. Reductio ad absurdum. To the world outside the sealed cat box, the cat is both alive and dead. The special masters are in the world outside the sealed autism box. To them-- who cannot and will not look inside-- the children are both regressive and nonregressive and every state in between because something either did or did not happen inside the box according to the diabbolical experiment of vaccines. They could be anything... bladditty bla bla... type of worsening... woof woof tweet...either exist or do not exist...pizza!
