Hey Clinton. It is really nice to read from you again. It has been quite a long time. I hope you are fine. I have as usual a few comments on your blog, which I read enjoyably during my breakfast earlier this morning :)

Note that spooky action at a distance from another perspective seems to suggest faster than light (superluminal) propagation of information.

It seems superluminal, but it is of course not. Nothing can violate this golden rule of physics (at least so far). This is in fact what I find amazing. Without knowing or inputting anything about special relativity, we end up with a theoretical framework in agreement with it. Of course, the reason is because we, humans, are sensitive to special relativity when measurements are made and information is transmitted.

In order to trigger some further discussion (you know I like this ;) ), I am not feeling very comfortable when you relate your stranger story to the beginning of the universe. The reason is that at some point, in its very early moment, the universe was so small that it should be subjected to quantum mechanics. This therefore consists in a non-deterministic period. Moreover, we have no theoretical framework to describe what was going on in those times... Therefore, it is an open door to more food for thoughts!
