I am not trying to prove quantum mechanics incorrect. I am trying to prove my theory is correct. If my theory is correct, and quantum mechanics is inconsistent withmy theory then quantum mechanics may very well be incorrect. There is also a possibility that on some issues the two theories may both be correct.

QM is the only theory (or scheme of theories) which has not been refuted for more than a century. All others theories in physics have been shown wrong in less than few years, when they are not suspected to be wrong at the start (wrong does not imply "not useful" in some context).

So my question, which has been already asked, is simply what happens when you send tronnies, one by one, (or compounds of tronnies) on a plate with two close small holes? (have you heard and think about Young two slits experience?).




You lost me with Turing emulable.

We can come back on this later, but as you seem not so much interested in consciousness, that might be out of your topic, at least for now. Taking consciousness into account + the hypothesis that the brain is a natural computer might force us to make physics into a sort of illusion entirely reducible to the study of machine's psychology or theology. See my URL or post, if interested.

I do not explain consciousness.

Fair enough. You are not searching to explain "everything". Unfortunately, consciousness has something to say on the very origin of the beliefs in the physical laws. You are still an Aristotelian theologian (taking matter for primitive or granted with the naive identity relation (brain/mind)). To defend that relation, between brain and mind, you will need some special sort of actual infinities. With the thesis that a brain (or body) is Turing emulable, you can still attach consciousness to a brain, but you cannot attach a brain to consciousness, you can only attach an infinity of relative universal machine states to a consciousness. This might explain the many-world aspect of quantum mechanics. It is not yet clear to me what is your position on quantum mechanics, or your explanation of the two slits experiment.

There is a theory of everything - my theory, "The Ross Model". You are a smart person and you are extremely interested in this subject, so sooner or later you will get around to reading my book. And I predict you will be forced to agree with me.

I haven't yet managed to discover what the ontology of the RM is - is the idea "primitive materialism" - that space, time, matter and energy are fundamental? Do you attempt to explain consciousness?
