Harry999,

You've dashed my hopes, as I'd hoped to be able to travel faster than the speed of light sometime next week. Thursday, actually. I'd better call it off to save embarrassment.

Glad to see that time travel is still on the menu. Maybe the week after, huh?

Meanwhile, I'll leave you with a question, seeing as you're into this physics thingy: The chap who works at my dry-cleaners once told me that if you separate two 'entangled' particles, say putting 'em at either end of the universe, then change the quantum state of the one nearest you, then the quantum state of t'other will change instantaneously, i.e. without 'speed' at all.

How come? Why doesn't the C constant apply in this case? Are these particles being a bit naughty? Something should be done about it, that's what I say.
