But there was supposed to be one new bit of information that is known after
the experiment but not before, but before the experiment the Helsinki Man
already knew that
​t​
he one that will see Moscow
​ will become the Moscow man; so what exactly is that one new bit of
information? ​

​I don't know if it refutes it or not, what exactly was the
"W & M"

​OK there is a 50-50 probability, but a 50-50 probability of who seeing
what? ​

That's nice, but

didn't answer the question,
​
 what was that one bit of information do
​
*YOU*
*​*
have after the experiment that
​
*YOU*
*​*
didn't have before?
​
If this really is a question and is not gibberish then it has a one word
answer, all John Clark wants to know is if that one word is zero or one.
​ Is that so hard?​

​Irrelevant. What one new bit of information did *YOU* get after the
experimental that *YOU* didn't have before?
