Schrodinger's cat was an interesting one. The idea that all possible outcomes are coexistent until observed is pretty trippy to me. Untilt he box is open the cat is both dead and not dead. Until someone is there to observe the falling tree, it both does and does not make a sound. Odd, but when you observe something like the double slit experiment it really makes you start to think. You're obviously more well versed in physics than I am. I am just a dabbler in many things. Jack of all trades, master of none I guess.
It is something I've been reading more and more on though. Makes me wish i took physics in highschool instead of chem...
