Anyway, to repeat the same joke I made when this came out seven years ago: speaking as a physics drop-out who then pursued a four-year bachelor of arts, multiple conflicting interpretations of the same thing being considered valid even if they lead to opposite things being considered true are my bread and butter. So, sorry quantum mechanics, I guess you're part of the humanities now.

I remember when this came up in the news six years ago. I looked them up (I live in Zurich) and, if I remember correctly, the grad student quit physics after this paper and went into programming...
Most physicists I have talked to would fit better into a church than the ivory tower of science.

I don't doubt you, but I think you're meeting the wrong physicists.
I'll admit, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that. I suspect I also have a different idea of what church-people are like. Perhaps you could elaborate?
