Is the uncertainty principle culturally deranging?

[Mark Kohut]

I might have sided with Gore on what the famous Principle did when it came in called Postmodernism, rightly
or wrongly dressed (by that I mean understood)
 
But look how wrong his statement about Pynchon is. Tanner, Poirier, others were not physicists, nor were lots whe were
humbler-in-fame. He wanted ye olde Ciceronian prose and cause-and-effect in a.......Menippean satire, whatever that is, besides
GR......................................................


Vidal claims he was using the word, if not necessarily in the best sense possible, not the worst sense either.

Writing of the author of GR:  "Only a physicist who wrote good prose could tell us if, say, Heisenberg’s famous and culturally deranging principle is correctly used in these many, many pages."

I just got an email, who knows why I'm on their list, I haven't tried to publish anything in years, from a place called AuthorHouse, subject says Publish today and get a no-cost bump-up.  So I guess it's free, today, if you want to get published.  I'm currently stuck on page 400 hell with no end in sight.  432.  What is it about 400?  The Moon is 400 times smaller than the Sun and 400 times closer to it than the Earth, or something.  Bumping-up, m
