Hi Guys

For all people interested in Schrödinger's Cat check out Leonard Susskind's explanation - very lucidly explained:
http://www.newpackettech.com/Resources/Susskind/PHY30/LectureRv9_Video_Lec7.htm

The cat is most definitely not in a superposition - it is entangled with the other parts of the apparatus and that entanglement is such the cat is alive or dead - never in a superposition. Open the box - that doesn't change the state of the cat - all that happens is you become entangled with it.

Thanks
Bill
