Yes I like Palmer's theory too. - "Just as our eyes cannot discern the smallest details in fractal patterns, quantum theory only sees "coarse grain approximations", as if it is looking through fuzzy spectacles." - That's very much in line with my approach. I've long maintained that some new kind of 'quantum geometry' is needed not based on 'real numbers'. - ""What makes this really interesting is that it gets away from the usual debates over multiple universes and hidden variables and so on," says Bob Coecke, a physicist at the University of Oxford. "It suggests there might be an underlying physical geometry that physics has just missed, which is radical and very positive."" - That also sounds great. Multiple universes violate Ockham's razor, and Hidden variables are a bit too Occult for me. Let's hope more comes from this new approach.
