Quantum stupidity

 


Professor Dave sounds less unhinged than usual in this 4 year old clip, in which he attacks "quantum mysticism" or the misuse of quantum physics (or rather the pop version of it) to promote New Age spirituality, New Thought-like self-help and alternative medicine. 

Deepak Chopra is prominently featured and so are the ubiqutuous crystals. Somewhat surprisingly, the budding cult leader Leo is still around on YouTube. I assumed he would be too uncharismatic to become the honcho of anything! Maybe a quantum effect of some kind? 

If Dave had always been like this, I might even start to like him, but alas, I suppose the pitbull style was more lucrative...
