Dominant
Is the Copenhagen interpretation really dominant? If so, where? It may well be that Copenhagen is what laypeople are most exposed to, but it's my impression that Everett-Wheeler is what's taught even at the undergraduate physics level, not necessarily because it's being endorsed as the One True Interpretation so much as being a really useful way to look at things so that you can solve quantitative problems.

very poor biography
gary was as a student a figure at mit's artificial intelligence center, a close friend of dano hillis and margaret minsky, daughter of marvin, called the *grandfather of artificial intelligence," and an acquaintance of physicist richard fynman. he also worked at hillis's Thinking Machines corp, which corp died from a combination of declining federal funding, intense competition and ego. also, this early truly massively parallel computer proved too awkward to program. all this is very easy to document. 184.74.94.207 (talk)grumpy —Preceding undated comment added 19:12, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
