Yeah, quantum physics is VERY weird. My husband argues that the difference between that and metaphysical stuff is that you can actually measure the quantum (usually, anyway)

You tell your husband that the astral is quite measurable - there are age old & tested methods for measuring such - they're called human beings.

Quantum on the other hand suffers from not only a lack of measuring devices but even the lack of any conceivable measuring devices. ie. just how do you go about observing anything that is not only smaller than the smallest particle of energy but billions of times smaller. Trying to use Earth-size billiard balls to measure a basketball is childs play compared to the difference between a photon & a string for example...

Let him not call you strange OK? *grins*
