What's the Alternative?

Richard Feynman came up with a way to test quantum mechanics. He built an experiment which would tell you what the universe was doing. If Einstein's right, then one was red and one was blue the whole time. We didn't know that until we opened it up,. But it actually was red the wholetime. And if quantum mechanics is right, then it wasn't red. In the quantum kind of view, both were possibilities until I opened my New Mexico - in which case both became non possibilities.
