The reason why I don't believe in Lorentz invariant quantum "collapse" is that no one's come up with a theory of it, OK? You can throw words around: mechanistic, nonlinear, chaotic, but it makes no progress. Just go off and invent the theory, please. mbk@lyapunov.ucsd.edu (Matt Kennel) writes: >It's almost as if people don't want to bother to really look. (Why? >Might small science actually get a Nobel Prize by accident?) Why? Because the chances of getting anything done are minimal and you will have a tough time convincing anyone to give you a job. Here let us remember some advice attributed to David Mermin: "No one should work on Bell's theorem until after they have tenure."
