AI Thread Summary
Mentat has been spotted in a Philosophy forum, sparking excitement among users, although there is no sign of Gale17. The conversation humorously misinterprets "sighting" as a potential misspelling of "mental sighting," leading to playful banter about scary stories. Daniel raises questions about the duration of Mentat's sightings and whether they relate to quantum mechanics, specifically the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which is humorously redefined in the discussion. Participants joke about the unpredictability of life and share links to other threads, including one that humorously references a warp in the space-time continuum. The overall tone is lighthearted, with users expressing joy at Mentat's return and engaging in witty exchanges.

Phhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww,u got me scared.Though u meant "Mental Sighting" and mispelt it... :-p I was waiting for some scary story... :-p

Daniel.
 
P.S.For how long has he been "sighted"??Does it have to do with Heisenberg uncertaint,u know,the more energy one guy has,the less time he's sighted indoors ? :-p

Daniel.

P.P.S.Does "PF sighting" obey QM principles?? :confused: :-p
 
You've got it all wrong. The Heisenberg principle states 'Life is uncertain. Eat dessert FIRST.'

Nothing in GD obeys QM principles - or much of anything else, for that matter. :biggrin:

Here's something much scarier than a mental sighting. https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=59914
