Great article!

I've just been reading the book "Quantum Mechanics - the Theoretical Minimum" - not for the faint hearted, but it's good to actually understand of the basic mathematical ideas behind QM. I love the fact that 100 years after QM was discovered it still holds so many mysteries as to what is happening on the particle level and what actually constitutes reality. It'll be interesting to see if classical mechanics can really explain QM. Perhaps we will end up with a situation like with that of non-Euclidean geometry where we can construct different (but isomorphic) mathematically consistent versions of the geometry of space - and so no experiment will ever be able to tell which version we live in....
