Hello Timo and thanks for checking back in.

I know you appreciate that scientists like Huygens were exceptional folks in 
their time, and would doubtless still be intellects in today's physics 
community.
But that does not mean that *every* concept that they espoused was correct 
(or wrong.)

Example: Schroedinger's Cat. AFAIK he meant this as a jest toshow how 
ridiculous was the QM concept that, since we didn't know the state of an 
item until we looked at it, a cat in a box was neither alive nor dead until 
we opened the lid. (Unless, perhaps, *if* we heard a "miaou".)

All the best, and still wauting for the prize-winning revelation of how 
Heisenberg kinda "blew it."
