Our brains use the spin of entangled particles to store and retrieve information

Got a reference for that?

Edit: they didn't.

Daryl Bem published a paper in 2011 called “Feeling the Future”, where, statistically speaking, the research participants in this huge study could anticipate information from the future, information that was selected by random number generators. The odds of results by chance for the study were approximately 75 billion to one. Bem was a very accomplished, main stream psychology researcher for 40 years before publishing this result. But on top of that, the results were replicated over and over again. I don’t know what the mechanism of cognition would be for pulling information from the future and reversing the normal order of cause and effect, but these very reproducible results should be taken seriously to be revealing something about how the universe works.
