I don't claim to really understand this whole thing, but I was wondering 
about how a half-silvered mirror can create two photons without 
violating at least one conservation law, then realised that it doesn't, 
in the original world (I don't know about the other, presumably the 
photon existed in there all along, but not sure about that). After 
Adrian's comment above, I'm now wondering how the entanglement happens 
in the first place, if the two worlds can't interact?

Not that I've ever understood what 'entanglement' actually means anyway.

Another thing that makes no sense to me is the issue of entire universes 
being 'created' whenever a quantum event takes place. Presumably that 
means that conservation laws only apply within each universe separately, 
and don't apply to a bunch of them.
