Based on the number of interpretations of quantum mechanics
(http://www.google.com/search?q=interpretation+of+quantum+mechanics), I
believe that *everybody* is confused to some extent. We understand the
math (more or less, I'm definitely on the "less" side), we know it
works, but we just can't connect to it at an intuitive level.
As Penrose said, there are more interpretations of QM than there are
people working in the field---but this is not a contradiction since some
are in mixed states and can hold more than one opinion at a time. :-)
Can anybody suggest a good text or two to read on this stuff?
While both are to a greater or lesser extent unorthodox, I recommend
David Deutsch's THE FABRIC OF REALITY and anything by Penrose where he
talks about QM.
