Ugh. It's "theoretical".

These are the types of people I can't stand when I'm wearing my Schrodinger's cat t-shirt. Inevitably, I'd have to explain the thought experiment, and they'd say something like "Well, if you kept it in the box for long enough, you'd be sure that it's dead, right?"

OK, now I have to go google Schrodinger's cat.

Huzzah for Schroedinger's Cat t-shirts! I almost always get people giving me shocked looks for talking about dead cats.

I had to remember to NOT wear it babysitting once. I figured that children would not understand a theoretical cat being dead... ;-)

I want a Schrodinger's Cat t-shirt a lot. I should make one one of these days.

They have one at ThinkGeek.com.

I've also heard of people going "You put a CAT in a BOX?!"
