Quantum Mechanics

You were a worthy adversary, but in the end, it was I who came out superior.

 

Got an "A" in the course. :)

I thought a Quantum mechanic was a person who may or may not fix your engine, unless you observe them doing one or the other.

The Quantum mechanic will only fix your engine when you watch him, and then when you blink he sends you to the past.

 

Or something like that.

No, man, you're thinking about a Quantum Locksmith. Like this jolly chap.

ET: Good luck! Which text are you using? For my undergrad class, we used Griffiths, and he's awesome.

 

Xaer'Az & Eeko: My undergrad QM professor actually has a mechanic-style shirt that has his name and "Quantum Mechanic" embroidered on the front. When he meets actual mechanics they ask him where he works, to which he replies "Quantum." :lol:

 

And that's just great, a Weeping Angel in my blog. NO ONE BLINK!!!

 

MVB: "I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics." -Feynman

 

What's more, it's true. Griffiths mentions this quote in his text and says "the goal here is not to teach you what quantum mechanics is, but what quantum mechanics does" (or something to that effect).

 

Sumiki: I already have two cats back home, but neither of them is named Schrödinger. :P
