Thank you, that's what I thought. Do you think Physicists need to be a little more clearer when talking about "observers" in quantum mechanics? I think people get the wrong idea about the role of consciousness in quantum mechanics, if it even has a role at all.

Hello Sean. Is a conscious observer required for the collapse of a wave function in quantum mechanics? (My guess is that of course it's not.) IF it is not, why do popularizers of physics seem to imply it, and never correct themselves or elaborate? I think this misunderstanding is a big reason many people tie quantum mechanics with "spiritualism" and other pseudoscience ideas.
