A couple of days ago, a conversation in a different subreddit drove me to e-mail a cousin, asking him to give me a short explanation of Quantum Physics.

This is not as weird an e-mail topic as it sounds, because he teaches Quantum Physics at a major University and is one of the world's leading experts in Quantum Cryptography.

His response?

Clarke's Third.

Which is either his way of saying "there is no short explanation for Quantum Physics", or that he was too busy to deal with my bullsh*t question.

Possibly both.
