[ # ] UPS and the end of the world
March 15th, 2006 under Fun, Thoughts, rengolin

Talking to a friend, Marcao, we agreed that the quantum physics have a real world example of the macro-scale Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle: UPS.

If UPS delivery your packet on time, it’ll be on the other side of the globe. If it happens to get to it’s destiny, it’ll be near the end of the universe (in time, not in space).

We also achieved a new dimension on uncertainty principle: the packet it self! If, for any yet unknown reason, UPS manages to deliver the packet on time and at the right place, it won’t be you packet!!

We also achieved the macro-scale non-locality: if you received the wrong packet, some one got the wrong packet as well. When you have interference on the same slitted entity, one change to the left on A will change to the right on B, so, if you received the cheaper packet, you’re sad and who received the more expensive packet is happy! See? Isn’t that obvious ?

So, I’d like to call your help to open a foundation: “Let’s keep UPS the way it is”. You could think it’s bad but I’m thinking about the safety of the world, check it out:

If UPS, as it is the quantum macro-scale proof of everything we have discovered in the past century, for some et unknown reason be able to deliver the right packet, at the right time and to the right person, the whole universe could collapse into a singularity and die, or he could prove quantum physics to be wrong, thus producing an even bigger chaos on earth.

So, earth or the universe, doesn’t matter, we are earthlings, we don’t care, right ? As all ends lead to the completely destruction of the human race, please, join me on this effort to keep the world safe!!
