This article was even better than the time when he set us an exercise to work out the accuracy of the values given in the Monty Python Galaxy Song.

Now I see why they call natural sciences “hard”.

Of course, the Copenhagen interpretation is somewhat goofy in this context (too), as decoherence is the expected phenomena of drinking enough Carlsberg.
