You think? I find relativity to have more "magic" formulas than quantum; the one "unaesthetic" thing about QM is accepting that the physics is not deterministic, but that strikes me as being perhaps a human bias rather than a real objection. -- SumnerH ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SumnerH's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13035 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38902 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
