Comment Re:Maybe I'm Understanding This Wrong (Score 1) 465

You have four photons - A, B, C, D. A starts off entangled with B, C starts off entangled with D.

What the experiment appears to show is that if B is then entangled with C, then A is effectively entangled with D. In other words, entanglement is transitive. What it does NOT show is a violation of causality,

What the experiment claims to show is that if A and D are measured, then B and C are subsequently entangled, then A and D were effectively entangled at the time of their measurement.

Comment Rules of Professional Conduct (Score 1) 267

When you look to the Rules of Professional Conduct of your state, and research cases of your state's supreme court disbarring or sanctioning lawyers, you will notice just how egregious conduct must be in order for attorneys to be personally liable for wrongdoing.

Proving that they knew before they filed is quite difficult; the standard should be outlined in the commentary for your state's RPCs....

Comment Re:Next Stop: Murder! (Score 1) 636

I've been stopped for suspicion of DUI before. Well, not stopped. I was standing outside my car talking to friends when the police showed up. The officer driving down the road, seeing us stopped and talking, could estimate my blood alcohol content. I've also been told I looked like I was going to buy drugs; speeding (without actually driving); and thinking about robbing a closed store (with my car parked in front, under a street light, on a busy street).

Are you black??

Comment Re:I thought we already had LSD (Score 1) 126

You cannot prevent a bad trip, they can hit people using LSD at random.

I disagree with this. The concept of a "babysitter" to first-time trippers is someone (usually sober) who can detect when things are going wrong and, in response, divert the tripper's attention to something which can hold his/her focus (such as animation)....
