And that experiment ONLY tells you part of the information that the double slit experiment gives you. I really have a hard time believing that you cannot understand the very simple statement made above about what needs to be tested and what conditions have to be included in the test. This is the kind of thing that 4th graders learn in their science classes. The fact that you cannot absorb this tells me that one of two things is in effect in your head: - You are significantly more stupid than a 4th grader, or - You are so entrenched with your preset conclusions that, despite seeing and understanding the above, admitting it to yourself let alone to anyone else would be too much of an ego blow to tolerate. Either way, there's really not much point in discussing it further with you, since I'd have about the same luck convincing a brown paper bag full of popcorn. PD

Assuming the particle exits both slits when you do not detect it is not support by the experimental evidence. There is NO experimental evidence of the particle ever exiting more than one slit. There is ZERO experimental evidence to support the assumption the particle exits both slits. Aether Displacement is supported by the only experiment evidence there is which is the particle ALWAYS exits a single slit because it is ALWAYS detected exiting a single slit. It is the associated aether wave which exits both slits and creates interference which alters the direction the particle travels. Detecting the particle causes decoherence of the associated aether wave (i.e. turns the wave into chop) and there is no interference. > I really have a hard time believing that you cannot understand the > very simple statement made above about what needs to be tested and > what conditions have to be included in the test.
