Quantum Mechanics MIT Lecture "Bell's Poor Inequality"

    Yesterday I watched a lecture on Quantum Mechanics. This lecture was entitled the experimental facts of life. The lecture talked about certain facts that have been obtained through experiments and are useful in quantum mechanics. One of them was what is called Bell's Poor Inequality.

    Bell's Poor Inequality is a seemingly simple equation that uses 3 binary properties in the equation. When you work through it all you get that it has to be right in all instances. What the professor said at the end of the video is that it is untrue in the quantum world. This is unbelievable for me, and I can not wait till I watch the next lecture in the series to find out how this can be true.

Below is a link to the lecture. Just so you know the part I am talking about is at the end of the lecture
