The local models minkwe and I gave were for the purpose of showing that it is possible to have random outcomes together with anticorrelation. They were not intended as local models of QM. Since you continue to misrepresent what I have said, you have confirmed your poor understanding of QM, and you notify us that you have time only for smatterings, I'm going to withdraw from this thread. Thank you for the stimulating discussion. Looking forward to your peer-reviewed publications!

Here is a model with random outcomes and anticorrelation. Let the hidden variable be a fair coin toss. Define the measurement functions and by and .

You are now the third poster to demonstrate this. Congratulations, Richard! :lol:

I'm hoping we can bring back minkwe's great Delft thread now (pruned if needed), and we can continue our exciting discussion of mutual information in EPR and anomalies in the experiments. Some great stuff in there.

Happy Halloween! :ugeek:
