And as I said before, Many Worlds does not assume that a huge number of parallel worlds exists, instead it concludes that they must exist if Schrodinger's equation means what it says. * > *And I notice you skipped over retro-causality. * > *Well maybe I can change that so I wouldn't have skipped talking about retro-causality a half hour ago.
