How Long Is a Piece of String?

Just watched a great TV programme about the length of a piece of string, a neat device to introduce quantum physics. The ideas are simply mind-blowing. Light can be anywhere at once. We only see it because we are here. Everything is here and not here simultaneously. I think therefore I sink. I need a drink!

    Hmm, I'm uncertain about that, and I'm pretty sure the cat in the box is dead.

  2. Yes, but is there actually a cat and a box? And for that matter does Halle Berry make a great Catwoman? Yes, I'm watching it!
