"The second possibility was perfectly explainable within known theoretic laws of the universe.  Radin's opposite number, University of Amsterdam's Dick Bierman, believed you could account for precognition through a well known quantum phenomenon known as retarded and advanced waves - the so-called Wheeler-Feynman absorber theory, which says that a wave can travel backward in time from the future to arrive at its source.
What happens between two electrons is this.  When one electron jiggles a bit, it sounds out radiating waves into both the past and the future.  The future wave, say, would hit a future particle, which would also wiggle, while sending out its own advanced and retarded waves.  The two sets of waves from these two electrons cancel out, except in the region between [this seems backwards to me, they should only cancel out in the space in between] them.  The end result of a wave from the first travelling backward and the second travelling forward is an instantaneous connection."
