[QUOTE="Chesterton, post: 73861365, member: 225709"] Right. It seems to me saying "you as observer only ever see one aspect of that superpositon" is, for scientific or any other purpose, saying "you see the only possible reality you will ever see in this universe". Imagining other possible universes is fine, but I don't think it's science. Let me ask one other thing though, in regard to Schrodinger's Cat and MW. His thought experiment presents a binary outcome - decay or no decay, cat dead or cat alive. (Unless the cat has an exceptionally strong constitution, and merely gets sick from the poison. ;)) This would require the universe split in two, as Carroll says. So what if, instead of a cat, a "wheel of fortune" (as on the TV game show) was in the box, and the wheel was being spun electrically. Then if the monitor detects radioactivity, instead of releasing a poison, it shuts off power to the wheel, which causes it to stop spinning. Let's say there are 360 slots on the wheel, and only one can be "landed on". Would this require 361 universes created/devoted to this event? (One additional for "no decay".) [/QUOTE]
