And experimentation is the boss not theory, it always has the last word. *> So that small amplitudes correspond to low probabilities.* > Yes, a small amplitude means there are fewer copies of Bruce Kellett similar enough to "you" to be called Bruce Kellett that observe the electron going up than number of Bruce Kelletts that observe the electron going down. So if a bet was made about what Bruce Kellett will probably see the smart money would bet on the electron going down.
