He supposedly once said that a dog's consciousness could collapse a wave function."<br /><br />Thanks. I didn't know that part.<br /><br />BTW, it's a blame. At least a blemish. <br /><br />It's at least a blemish, inasmuch as the Collapse proposers / theorists went to the extent that the "von Neumann Cut" --- its existence or non-existence, and the locus/loci in the metaphysical / epistemological reality of the same --- became a subject matter of at least 10^3 peer-reviewed publications in standard Physics journals in the 20th c., including papers authored by Nobel laureates themselves.<br /><br />[Google? Would/could you please help me on those questions of *orders* of things? I mean to the base 10? Thanks in advance.]<br /><br />Best,<br />--Ajit<br />Ajit R.
