Ruth & Rindler: more quantum confusion (General)

The following dicussion of Bell's inequality thought experiment, reminicent of Wheeler's delayed choice, claims that reality isn't there until we look for it:-http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/2007/apr/20/quantum-physics-says-goodbye-to-reality-"Some physicists are uncomfortable with the idea that all individual quantum events are innately random. This is why many have proposed more complete theories, which suggest that events are at least partially governed by extra "hidden variables". Now physicists from Austria claim to have performed an experiment that rules out a broad class of hidden-variables theories that focus on realism -- giving the uneasy consequence that reality does not exist when we are not observing it (Nature 446 871)."-It appears to me that Ruth's proposed solution fits. Offer waves and conformation waves pull out the underlying reality from 'the other side' so to speak.
