Message-ID: <753@ttds.UUCP> Date: Sat, 8-Dec-84 14:47:54 EST Article-I.D.: ttds.753 Posted: Sat Dec 8 14:47:54 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 11-Dec-84 02:44:27 EST Reply-To: alf@ttds.UUCP (Thomas Sj|land) Organization: The Royal Inst. of Techn., Stockholm Lines: 8 Keywords: QM The "Many Worlds"-interpretation of reality seems to have the nice property that "messages from the future" is not such a counter-intuitive notion in that model as in more traditional ones. If we receive such a message, we simply do not know which one of the possible futures sent it ! Since all possible events occur in parallel the violation of "causality" caused by such a message would not be such a big deal. Has anyone got any pointers to some understandable text about the model for amateur philosophers-physicists like myself ?
