			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The famous <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment">double slit experiment</a> has been <a href="http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/03/particle-wave-duality-physics/">recreated using large molecules</a>.  So it&#8217;s not just a subatomic thing.   </p>
<blockquote><p>Thomas Juffmann et al. fired molecules composed of over 100 atoms at a barrier with openings designed to minimize molecular interactions, and observed the build-up of an interference pattern. The experiment approaches the regime where macroscopic and quantum physics overlap, offering a possible way to study the transition that has frustrated many scientists for decades.</p></blockquote>

<p>The page had existed for over a year before Obama decided to use the word for his campaign, causing sudden need to delete it.   You can&#8217;t trust Wikipedia, folks.  </p>
<p>Also, using &#8220;Forward&#8221; wasn&#8217;t a mistake by a stupid intern that couldn&#8217;t be bothered with a Google search.  Obama&#8217;s handlers know exactly what it means and they&#8217;re using it on purpose.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>And since I&#8217;m left handed I can say that.  </p>
<p><a href="http://borepatch.blogspot.com/2012/05/in-which-i-endorse-barack-obama-for.html">Borepatch has endorsed Obama for President in 2012</a></p>
<p>And I mostly agree with his reasoning.</p>
<p>By nominating Romney the GOP has proven itself once again to be a creature of big government insiders and go along to get along beltway bandits.  (This is my shocked face)  Romney supporters point to Obama saying, &#8220;Look how bad he is&#8221;, while ignoring that for the most part Obama has merely maintained a course set by Bush who mostly followed the course set by Clinton who followed the one set by Bush. (See a pattern yet?)  They offer no evidence that Romney would steer a different course and frankly I don&#8217;t think he would.   The GOP insiders, like the Democrat insiders, are perfectly happy with the direction the country is headed, they just want to be the ones at the helm. (Graft is so much easier when you&#8217;re in charge)</p>
<p>This election, like all the others, it an illusion.  You&#8217;re offered the illusion of choice but it&#8217;s between two sides of the same coin and the game is rigged.  </p>
<p>Heads, they win and tails, you lose.</p>
