And nobody knows what Copenhagen is saying. Bohr, Heisenberg, Wigner and Wheeler all said they are ardent believers in the Copenhagen interpretation but Wigner, a Nobel Prize winner, thought consciousness collapsed the quantum wave function while Heisenberg, another Nobel prize winner, insisted it did not; and that's a pretty big difference in my opinion. And John Wheeler was Hugh Everett's thesis adviser and even wrote a letter to Bohr that still exists saying that Many Worlds is fully consistent with the Copenhagen Interpretation! As for Niels Bohr, he said "Never express yourself more clearly than you are able to thinkā and as a result of that to this day people are still arguing about what the man was trying to say. So before we start debating its pros and cons we should figure out what the hell the Copenhagen Interpretation is.
