I feel that this is so important that it doesn’t matter at all.

Because they don’t like galluses or belts. Cats are eminently practical.

Ever learning, but never coming to the truth. Send more money for sure. Otherwise my superposition at the institute will collapse and I will have to wait tables to eat.

Yes, but will it pay the rent? There is something not quite scientific when physics and metaphysics are mingled.

A physicist knocked off his cat and now he’s going for his only friend?

Biocentrism. Is a hot babe really a hot babe before somebody leers at her?

And why does beer have something to do with it?

The imaginary cat is EITHER alive OR dead. Alive and dead are mutually exclusive. A creature cannot be both at the same time. An observer may not know if the creature is alive or dead. That is not the same as the creature being both alive and dead at the same time.

“I think we have collapsed the superposition of this study - IT’S GRANTS!!”

Yeppers.

Soon, grants will flow for Global Cooling studies, too, as we enter a Grand Solar Minimum.

It’s a Woodstock throwback. So many think calico is tiresome. It’s akin to Amish rebellion.
