Brent Meeker appreciates John Clark's concern with pronouns. I
think it needs to put in the context of QM, which is what Bruno
is proposing to explain. Suppose Bruno is Helsinki and he steps
in a transporter and it sends him to Washington. That Bruno,
Bruno_w goes back to Helsinki, gets in the transporter again and
it sends him to Moscow. That Bruno_wm goes back to Helsinki and
repeats this process many times. Eventually
Bruno_wmwwmwmmmww...mwm concludes that the transporter seems to
be random and just sends him to Washington or Moscow at random
with probability 1/2. This is hailed as a great discovery...in
Copenhagen. But in Washington (state) near the upper reached of
Puget Sound there is a dislike of random things and a general
feeling that randomness can never be a property of the world, but
only a quantification of ignorance. So there a different view of
Bruno_wmwwmwmmmww...mwm's experiment is that every time he pushed
the button two whole universes were created, separated by more
than the Hubble radius, and in one Bruno went to Bruno_w and in
the other he went to Bruno_m. And so there was no probability
involved, exactly the same thing happened every time. It only
seemed like probability and randomness. Some people thought this
was a little extravagant and asked how was energy conserved and
how could this theory be tested. But they were silenced by being
told the theory predicted exactly the same things as the
probability theory without probabilities, so it must be right.

Hi,
Great post! I would like to know how the sequence
"wmwwmwmmmww...mwm " is recorded and passed along. There is a
tacit assumption of a "book keeper at infinity' here!
No, each Bruno takes his notebook with him which get transported
also and he just writes down where he arrived before heading back
to Helsinki.

Hi Brent,
OK, so the notebook gets copy and pasted too?
??????????????
It is the only difference between 1p and 3p used in the UDA. For the
3p the diary are outside the teleportation boxes, and for the 1p, the
diary are inside, and thus gets copy and pasted too.
