| Jul 30, 2015 at 1:35 | comment | added | Yeshe | I have always preferred the Many Worlds Interpretation so both realities exist at all times we are just unclear which reality we are in until it is observed. Further more whether or not an observation is made is also uncertain until it is observed, infinitum. Still, while it is not a perfect fit I do believe it fills the need presented as a piece of figurative language. | |

Schrodinger said that even though the outcome was not observed, whether it was observed or not wasn't important. Simply a restatement of "if a tree falls in the woods..." | |
