Why I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The (Upcoming) Bomb(ing)

Matthew Baldwin reports from the White House. President Bush: If you're against going to war against Iraq, it's because you're still trapped in a purely Newtonian worldview. As the work of quantum physicist Erwin Schr–dinger clearly shows, further UN inspections only run the risk of giving Hussein his sought-after WMDs.

Talk about Old Europe. They should've explained this from the start.

Buy In Search of Schrodinger's Cat by John Gribbin, which I haven't read, or Tor Norretranders' The User Illusion, which I have. Or, go the musical route, with "Dead or Alive," Baldwin's Schoolhouse Rock-style song about Schrodinger's Cat.

Update: Please be aware that, while the above interview transcript is humor --a parody-- this alarmingly similar quote from Ken Pollack is not:

I think that if we don't go to war this time around I don't think we will ever go to war with Saddam Hussein until he's acquired nuclear weapons. And then he picks the time and place of going to war ... if given my preference I would prefer not to be in the position we're in. But I can't turn back time. And we're in the position we're in. And at this point in time, as messy as it may be, I think that it is now or never. And now is a much better option than never.

Since 2001 here at greg.org, I've been blogging about the creative process—my own and those of people who interest me. That mostly involves filmmaking, art, writing, research, and the making thereof.

Many thanks to the Creative Capital | Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Program for supporting greg.org that time.
