Or more accurately Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
I really don't know where to post this so it's here.

It's that test where they chuck electrons through slits and see the patterns as they hit the other side, only if you detect the electrons passing they change their pattern.
Can anyone find any actual experimental data where the electron detection equipment (like electronic recordings) are placed in a box kinda..
like a cat in a box? are the results entirely bias to human observation or is mechanical observation good enough?

All the sites i see tend to brush around the subject like an uncomfortable fact, not liking to say it, so trying to say it in a really complicated way.
If it is the case that it takes consciousness alone to cause the effect, which i think it dose, then it must really piss off annoying atheistic cynical types.

I for one think that is an amazingly good sport that should be practiced at length.
