One interpretation by some physicists with Cramer's transactional

handshaking with the paste to create the present. Price's old book
seems to imply this as well.
Cramer's transactional interpretation is non-local.

Jason,
Answers to your 3 questions.
1. No.
If there are no faster-than-light (FTL) influences, then how does
your interpretation address the EPR paradox ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPR_paradox
)? As a previously mentioned, according to Bell's theorem, there
is only one known solution to the paradox that does not involve FTL
influences, and that is Everett's theory of many-worlds.
Huw Price's time symmetry also solves the paradox.
Is this the same as, or related to Cramer's transactional
interpretation?
No, it's a lot simpler. It doesn't add any new physics, and removes
one assumption.
Bell agreed with him on this, so I think it's probably a valid
result even if not widely known. I'm not sure that Price's ontology
is intended as a "rival" to Everett, however, although it may
introduce modifications.
Interesting, do you have any sources you can point me to on this?
I'd start with "Time's arrow and Archimedes' point" by Huw Price.
