Sometimes I Can't Resist

BBC Headline:

Is Osama Bin Laden Dead Or Alive?

Well of course, unless he's Schroedinger's Cat, he's dead or alive.

Sorry. Sometimes the Editor in me takes over.

(Don't worry if you don't understand Schroedinger's Cat. Even Einstein couldn't figure out quantum theory and famously said he couldn't believe God played dice with the universe.) You'll find the just and lasting peace in the Middle East formula much sooner, anyway, I'm sure.
