Re: Quantum Computing
In the very early days of radio some inventors weren't quite sure how their invention worked; They just happened to hit on the right idea through trial and error.
Until somebody can explain to me how a qbit works, I am extremely skeptical. They may be able to come up with nifty devices on a scale smaller than a calculator, but it might be decades before somebody figures out how to make this useful.
This reminds me of a really old joke where a company invents a computer that is a billion times faster but some idiot asks if it will run Windows.
Best wishes,
John Coffey

As a result, consumers don't know that taking megavitamins could increase their risk of cancer and heart disease and shorten their lives; they don't know that they have been suffering too much of a good thing for too long.
