The Absurdity of Following Your Own Equation
I think the people are going to want to hear about quantum mechanics. I take the view that quantum mechanics is not finished. Einstein was always very doubtful about the theory being a complete description of what goes on. And Schrodinger put forward the equation which quantum theory is supposed to satisfy. Well, he was troubled with it. You can see because he put forward this ridiculous situation of the cat, which is a superposition of light and that as an example of the absurdity of following his own equation. We don't understand what's going on.
