Re: Double Trouble
Yeah, it's not the observer, but the observer's ability to obtain information about the which-path. How is that different?
An unconscious detector is capable of collapsing the wave function of light. Therefore, a consciousness is not required. It is that simple. The same would happen if a dust particle accidently and without conscious control floated into the slit and absorbed a photon.
