Shrodinger's humdinger

Dear Schrodinger,

I write to you today in regard to your famous cat thought experiment. I have already written to Stan (inventor of Henry's cat) and he says that Henry can be full and empty at the same time but he cannot speak for somebody else's cat. I understand that your experiment is a fine example of a quantum paradox and therefore any confusion or distress caused to the cat is totally justifiable. Here is my question: If a cat is either dead or alive or possibly both, is it wanted? Is there any connection between your cat experiment and the cult TV show Wanted: dead or alive starring Steve McQueen as bounty hunter Josh Randall? I know what you are thinking: nobody puts Steve McQueen in a sealed container! Actually, he is dead now so technically he is already. Do you like Steve McQueen? I do. Did you know he did all his own stunts? I do my own stunts too. I have just put myself in a sealed container with a bit of radioactive substance which may or may not kill me. All I have is my blackberry so I can send you this email. If I ever make it out of here alive, do you think I could have a job on your scientific advisory board - I got a B in double science at school and my favourite TV show is Quantum Leap?

Many thanks,

Gerry (human paradox in a box)
