Until now I was not even aware of this experiment. But found something about
it here -
http://roxanne.roxanne.org/epr/experiment.html

Some preliminary issues -
http://roxanne.roxanne.org/epr/eprS.html
[The polarization of the photons produced by the source are oriented
randomly.] per Hidden Variable Theory

How do we know this ? I am not convinced that randomness exists outside the
minds of mathematicians. Saying that randomness exists is like saying that
order and disorder exist. What does "order" look like ? Honestly. Does
"order" exist in nature ? What is perfect order ? Do you really believe in
randomness ? Personally, I think that randomness is better left as an
abstraction. But I'll try to play along with it for the purposes of this
thread.

I've never even seen this (Aspect) experiment before, but will study it and
give feedback. Again - I am not saying that QM is wrong - only that our
understanding of time is incomplete.

More word salad to follow -
