Aspelmeyer's experiment is profound in implication, certainly--but
why is Radin's experimental result "trivial"? It might be bogus
BULLSHIT, completely invented or very badly conducted, but if not and
the results are as summarized it can hardly be *trivial*, seems to
me. Or do you mean trivial *by definition*, since we know in advance
that it can be nothing better than BULLSHIT? (Although if Anton
Zeilinger had arranged it, and the same results appeared in Nature,
somehow that would make it all better.)
