I like this quote.

"Entangled entities (particles or photons) are linked together because they were produced by some process that bound them together in a special way. For example, two photons emitted from the same atom as one of its electrons descends down two energy levels are entangled. (Energy levels are associated with the orbit of an electron in the atom.) While neither flies off in a definite direction, the pair will always be found on opposite sides of the atom. And such photons or particles, produced in a way that links them together, remain intertwined forever. Once one is changed, its twin - wherever it may be in the universe - will change instantaneously."

Sometimes I miss everyone from home very much, but I think this quote has a point. :)
