Mainstream news gathering and reporting is being REREPORTED by ASSHOLES with PODCASTS and fucking YOUTUBE channels, and the correct truth is then filtered, shared, and reshared, and overnight, reality can be changed by followers and those who know them and hear the bullshit. That's the USA; that's what happened in the 2024 US election, massive misinformation distribution.
Our recent ancestors built our society while sharing the same knowledge of everything we know: the universe.
There's always something of mainstream #news reporting that can use criticism. Still, at least they hire professional journalists who would pick apples before bidding for a billionaire and only covering the news that makes his political philosophy seem right.
The world is consistent when the truth is hunted for and fought for in journalistic pursuit, and its reporting remains as found. Think about the recent history of reporting; what network of news distribution became new to the USA and the world and exploited the popularity of television to break through? It was not CNN. Which one came along later? Who jumped on the mass news gravy train?
Remember, the universe means all that we know. The word "we" has an essential meaning in that fact.
Know your universe consistently with your neighbor as what you each can see and measure and feel as being different only because of an absence of curiosity or the time to explore; because you talk, and then we can progress; that's how it works when things are working; that is the reality known to all when the society around you was created, consistent among those that gathered to talk.
Ban alternative news, the new news that is not what your parents and grandparents built society with the knowledge of. Look for real journalism. Look for reported differences in consistency or similarities with the physical world, not a social network world.
The Women's March of 2017 to Welcome the Rapey Mysogynst.
There needs to be 2 million protestors flooding Washington D.C. on Saturday, January 18, and or Sunday, January 19, 2025. Patiently, we waited, and then repeatedly, the U.S. institutions we trusted with justice and democracy have failed to protect women and men and everyone from Donald Trump.
I strongly suggest the dark but necessary symbol of hundreds of thousands of cardboard assault rifles to impress upon the incoming Trump cronies the dead seriousness of allowing that monster the White House and any power. They should not look detailed but be abstractly painted black on top, with some brown for the stock (wooden handle). Hold them high and show those misogynist racist moronic trump fu**ers we mean business. They wanted a gun-swollen nation anyway.
This election was another Murdoch and Sinclair and Money victory. It is not a time for a thousand reasons of crying denialists' of cultural minutia. We have a split news universe and out-of-control campaign financing like the framers could never have anticipated when planning the freedoms of the First Amendment and including its Press clause. Half this country is living in a fabricated facts reality, their news is funneled, filtered and bent by rich old farts and they are dumbassed sheep who eat it up.
We must regulate who can own mass media and how much of it, including this type of platform. Then, voter testing and public campaign financing, the former can begin in any State next year, the latter needs a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.
I have a rational fear of masses of dumb people electing horrible candidates who destroy what I love of the United States of America.
After Bush, Trump, and Brexit, it's a good time to discuss an idea that's
time may have come:
Please, take it seriously, and never as inherited by location and taken-for-granted?
In the current political environment, if voter testing must be an uncomfortable concept, please try to get used to the idea?
Because it's imperative and it's a dictate in our beginning, for the survival of this republic as a self governed and free nation that we always do what we can to become better, as more fair and free and as steady as a well built ship at sea.
Without chaotic sways from waves of the malcontent and misinformed, this craft can be guided by the wisdom of the masses and not the emotional whims of low information voters and those taking for granted they've got a fantasy of a universal right to decide the fate of all.
It may be true that for every curious and self-motivated US voter, at least two others are either of low mental ability or infrequently read current events and find politics tedious.
Is it fair to everyone that the latter group determines our nation's progress?
How is that working-out?
Requiring a test to indicate essential knowledge is not discriminatory of race or sex or ethnicity and can only improve this republic toward fairness and better
representation.
Access to the polls is so essential to successful self-governing that I want people to have the ability to vote with telepathy on the toilet, if they choose. Their smartphone or any internet terminal would be fine, after reasonable vetting.
After society has an idea, the voter has an idea of the truth of reality, history, civics.
It is consistent with democracy and improving its trustworthiness. It will
be another tier of representation, like Congress itself it will be local representation, by your neighbors, your family or your friends.
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization,
it expects what never was and never will be. . . whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted
with their own government; that, whenever things get so far wrong as to
attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them right."
- Thomas Jefferson

How Old Are You?
How little the freedom to vote dumb or not, crowd considers things when making paralell to my advocacy for statewide voter registration testing of basic knowledge to a community standard and outright democracy destroying voter suppression, intended to suppress.
I would love it if 100% of mature citizens passed the Voter Registration Test and became change makers. Maybe then we could see a utopian government? In fact, I’ve proposed that if a State uses only VRT eligibility, that that should be online, and instant voting on passing should be a part (during early voting).
There has been voter suppression from the start of this experiment in self government.
A truth we can not deny is that the age restriction for voting was and remains a voter suppression strategy that is all about the level of the voter's intellect. It is logical discrimination that is based in community standards (of consensus).
When first agreed, it was a mutual fear, and it must have been a civic nightmare, that an immature brain, of an actual child or an adult that can not fully grow up (we all know one), would be deciding the fate of the community on matters of life and death. For those pioneers of modern democracy, the idea of it was likely, literally a REM sleep nightmare.
Citizens voting on collective issues and representatives to argue for us is an invention of modern humanity that is essential to self-governing, and fundamental to most ideas of democracy, but discriminating toward a minimum intellect of the voter is necessary if a nation is to benefit.
It was too rare, but if only everyone could read in the late 18th-century, they could have written simple tests to ensure trust from all in the decisions of the electorate.
Because of the widespread illiteracy and with few options, before the Bill of Rights was even considered, leaders at the State level had already restricted voting to white males and or landowners and merchants. Unfortunately to their judgment, those were the reasonable among us.
Emotion related differences from children to adults. A childlike brain will likely favor those emotional biases at the polls.

Voting "Rights":
If you
are a political pundit or a politician (viewed or read and or respected by many)
and go about stating that Americans have a "right to vote," then poorly informed
people will use it. Rights get taken for granted and abused. It's a privilege to
vote; the Framers knew it and wanted it to remain so.
Voting should be slightly less difficult as it is to acquire a license to
drive.
Both driving and voting for a person that could destroy the world are
dangerous privileges, and we want the right people using them.
We want an indication they know wtf they're doing.
Constantly saying a thing does not make it true.
We live by a constitution.
Liars like Trump do that, and ignorant followers believe it.
The so-called "Right to Vote" is used similarly; repeating it does NOT make
it so.
The Framers did NOT WANT a universal right.
Voting is dangerous. Leaders can kill people with their mistakes or
purposefully.
You are receiving FALSE voter information when listening to a commentator, a
politician, or an activist etc., telling you anything like .....
"Every American citizen has a right to vote."
“Amazingly enough we do not have in our Constitution the right to vote as a Constitutional right, we leave it up to the states … That’s where I get passionately upset.”
- Bernie Sanders, 2016
An important lesson of the recent MAGA tragedy in American democracy is that
voting is a dangerous privilege and must remain so.
Few of these "voters" would pass the civics, history
or current events questions on their local Voter Registration
Test.
~~~
A Right to Vote is fiction and must remain a privilege, NOW MORE THAN EVER.
Here's a NPO that wants to create a RIGHT to VOTE, bc THEY KNOW the framers
did NOT WANT Schmucks like the MAGAs using the DANGEROUS ability.
Here is longtime Washington DC politico Chris Matthews skewing the 15th Amendment and conflating its purpose of equality to a never written Right to Vote: "It basically says everybody, because of our history of slavery, regardless of color or ethnicity gets to vote …."
He's so right and wrong; it indicates pretty specifically that the minority can't be discriminated against in access to the polls; it's not giving all people a right to vote.
He's right about this, the US Justice Department has failed to enforce the 15th, and if it had been, we wouldn't be debating voting access or confusing a generation by calling a civic process a right.
If a State legislative body is writing a voter restriction law, or a new
manner of making voters eligible, they are exercising a clear Constitutional
right of the States to regulate and restrict the process.
The Framers had A LOT of opportunity to write a universal right.
There is no “right to vote” in the USA, as a guarantee in the Constitution, as a promise that any adult with a pulse must be allowed to decide the future of a complex nation.
The Framers thought that would be ridiculous.
After Trump, so do I.
Bill
of Rights:
Where is it?
I fully agree, effectively it has been and remains racist to allow the
States to regulate and restrict voting.
Amend the
Constitution; let's take that right away from the States.
Let's adapt the Federal Elections Commission to make it an army of voting
equality and fairness, with standardization throughout the land.
Because it's an invitation to any legislature to act on their racist fear
or just fear of dumb people. A body can be biased for its party or skin
color.

A literacy test?
In 1780, at most, 95% of the public could not read more than their first and last name.
In the two centuries following, those figures improved dramatically.
Today, less than 5% of the public will reach adulthood and need to be literate.
We know what Jim Crow laws were, and we fully expect voter registration testing to be created for equality, as all government services should.
As the Fifteenth Amendment dictates of the Federal government, equal access to the polls is a right, not voting itself. There is no federally protected or documented universal right to vote in the United States. There is a law that defends equality to access.
Voting is fundamental to self-government, but no federal law guarantees a citizen a right to vote. There is a law (Amendment 15) that protects equality of access to the polls, and in that manner, it can be called a "right to equality of voting." It's a privilege to vote.
A well-informed voter is foundational if the self-government is to work, be trusted, and be fairer to all.
Consistent with the premise of this post, voter testing is a wise and timely idea.
It can turn the tables on voter suppression where voters' masses have become a competitive goal on partisan sides, and the race becomes a cause of election paranoia, used by a recent candidate to stoke the anger of his cult followers.
Imagine a pool of reliable voters, each passionate and curious, and passing the voter registration test before every general election.
I can imagine being one of the framers of the US Constitution and imagining that the voters can read and read news only printed by reliable sources.
Like tested and licensed drivers, they can steer on the highways of representation to avoid crashing into other people. That is consistent with democracy and improving our general trust.
An informed voter is necessary for the effectiveness and stability of any democracy, or it will fall apart, collapsing from the ignorant hordes.
Hordes of the poorly informed incited by the most ignorant
president in US history, on January 6th 2021.
Had Trump's voters been required to take a quiz to become a registered
voter, they would not have existed.
We abused the First Amendment, we lost control of truth.
Americans don't have to allow people to vote, who don't care
enough to study to discover the truth.
We can't afford the LOW
INFORMATION voter.
Democracy is FAILING; it's no longer about
MASSES of VOTERS because proper representation requires well informed voters,
not hundreds of millions of people too busy to find the truth who live in a
divided news media environment.
Understand? Geez
The
challenging future will require a reliable body of esteemed tested voters, not
millions too busy to understand the complexities of issues.
After
Bush, Trump, and Brexit, it's an excellent time to discuss an idea that's time
must come.
Because, the low information voter does not have to be
here-to-stay. Let them get on with their lives, that are apparently more
important than giving thought time to serious issues of the day.
Trump, Brexit, right? C'mon!?
If the nation had voter
testing, of history, civics and current events, to become eligible, the
numbers would be smaller, but proportions of party advocates and divided opinions no less different, and they'd be knowledgeable voters that can't
be fooled.
Having a pool of tested voters is a needed next tier of
representation.
It is not like there won't be a lot of voters, all
representing all needs of all people.
We want the tests to be
welcoming and passable. It's who the voter is that's important. Someone who
cares enough to keep-up and know their civics, history, and current events.
Our democratic representation creates a pyramidal structure, and adding a
pool of tested registered voters is a logical adaptation to our new large
population of very busy people:
What about your neighbor representing you because you're too busy and disinterested in politics to vote with reasonable care or study to know what is true?
Imagine that after voter testing has become standard, that 20% of today’s numbers will be participating at that time, but those numbers will be persistent or greater - to be counted on as consistently there, for all candidate to focus on their opinions - of knowledgeable people who care enough. Testing should not designed to fail participants. The board can test the tests, and any member of an congressionally managed round table can challenge any question.
The great majority should be able to pass the voter test.
Democracy by representation improves because politico news junkie neighbors of every community, who take the Voter Registration Test every 4-years, will be making election decisions on issues that have been difficult for all to keep up with.
The democracy nightmare of Donald Trump as a POTUS inspires a few measurements of empathy questions for the Voter Registration Test.
Well-informed, caring voters recognize an absence of consideration for others, and they vote against them.

Does the #DemocraticParty fear their constituency is composed of too many who would not vote if it became too inconvenient?
Yes.
Does that not indicate a corrupt system? It's an intellectual process of decision and we are doing this!
Wake up, "Awoken?"
Under #VoterTesting the lazy will stop voting. Democratic order will depend on a steady pool of committed voters who would turn out in a hurricane.
Why not have a nation run on the instant opinions of every citizen voting with their satellite connected brain implants?
Kids too, why not?
I submit, you would rather society find a way to discriminate based on reasoning skill and knowledge of truth and history.
Imagine something like this, if you are accustomed to being tested:
A State controlled testing system can be developed that is as fair as possible. We are expert at testing ourselves in almost all walks of life.
I have confidence we can do this well.

The Myth that Masses of Voters can save us ...
(and the numbers game fantasy) ......
Accepted as true in liberal US politics is, IF the scenario
could be true that EVERYONE voted, the Democratic Party would win is logical
IF a majority (even a tiny majority) of ALL did their homework, and EVERYONE
voted - a fantasy, proven to be every year there's more voters.
It's not quantity, unless your entire competition is about objectifying all
voters as simple numbers; of persons over eighteen years-old who can breathe.
I was passionate about getting out masses of people to vote, for many years, even volunteering with my local Democrats to find people, and carrying voter registration forms in my school bag.
However, I’ve realized that sustaining good (fair) #democracy with the “well Informed voter” (concept) was never about the numbers. It’s the quality of participants in the process of highly significant choices, and we are trusted to maintain this.
Below, an old meme I created 20-years ago, when, like many, I believed a simplistic idea that making voting easy, or everybody voting makes bettter representation:
Quality not Quantity.
We are not sheep to be herded for a head count.
~~~~
In the humorous example below; I see Daltry can be a metaphor for a public advocate for everyone voting fast and easy in a democratic government election, who thinks a utopia is achievable if the number of voters is EVERYBODY. He's a true believer; without voter testing (like driver testing), the party becomes a disaster.
More at the Door!

Here's an imaginative nightmare democracy scenario:
The year 2068; the long time belief by voting advocates that everybody vote, and then democracy can save us all, has some glitches:
Every adult wears a brain implant that connects to the Earth Office of Elections in a highly secure space station, and ALL issues and political decisions are decided by MASS BRAIN POLLING.
Sometimes the whole world stops in place to masturbate. 🙄

What citizens need are those who want to be part of democracy, enough to
find the truth and pass the test.

This picture is a good example of that danger:
Voting is Dangerous
Please take voting seriously?
It's a privilege and an honor, and I am grateful.
When people vote frivolously or carelessly, following a perceived community standard or believing in falsehoods or a candidate’s promises, we get poor government, and horrific behavior and mistakes are more likely.
In my past profession, I was tested repeatedly to install plumbing and heating to indicate to my community that I would not negligently explode a city block or poison the water, or blow up a house.
When I drive on the highway, I take comfort knowing those around me have been tested for limitations in their knowledge and bodies.
Is not the United States is worth providing at least that much safety?
If we test voters, we will
more likely have an electorate who know the truth of current events, history, and civics.
They could be counted on as a consistent number who would vote in a
natural disaster.
Voting is a regulated privilege of those who participate in democracy and is
not a "right."
If we Test Voters, we will more likely have an electorate who know the truth
of current events, history, and civics, as they would be naturally curious
information readers.
They could be counted to vote in a
natural disaster, after a horrific war, or in a plague.
Don't confuse rights with your privilege to vote; i.e. you cannot be
discriminated against in the process for reasons of race or sex.
A tested voter should get free stuff from city and state governments and a
lot of local discounts. They should get an annual check from the IRS, of $100. Keeps the numbers of them higher.
Vote, at the time you test to vote, after you've passed your test.
~~~
Here's a fine example of some of the DUMBEST voters EVER; via Jordan Klepper of the Daily Show.
Save democracy and test these Neanderthals?
Voting is a dangerous activity (we bomb nations) and it's supposed to be intellectual, BION.
They're ready to vote. They are eligible.
They are 18-years-old, and they are breathing.
Trusting The News Today;
With misinformation widely allowed, the results of #voting can be as
dangerous as driving a heavy vehicle in a city. If you don't have proper
knowledge and ability you are probably going to hurt yourself and others,
and be costly.
Voter testing locations should all have great
catering with booze. After all, testers are registered voters are honored
citizens.
In the future, an answer is advocacy for creation of
#VoterTesting, for all lovers of country who keep up w/truth, to have the
privilege of running democracy.
You could be sure an
apocalyptic event would not stop a tested voter from reaching the polling
place or voting online or by mail. By taking the test and passing to
become eligible, they have shown great enthusiasm for participation.
Here’s
an idea, in conjunction with testing, voting at the time of the test; you
choose your candidates and other choices, and then you proceed to take the
test. You place your test into a Scantron form that can quickly give you
your result, and if you pass the test, your vote gets registered.
In my State there were 248K citizens who voted in a recent
primary, of 2.2M eligible (old enough) voters.
While the
nation waits for thousands of polling places and assembly of millions of
mail-in ballots, published exit polls, inferring winners and losers, will
inspire great anxiety, and outbreaks of violence and riots.
Test
to vote concept creates a reliable pool of active voters, must like
jurists are selected and maintained for trials.
The division
of both truth and political bent will be here to stay in societies with
freely published media; news distributions outlets that can't be taken
away, and can allow biases affect their presentation of truth.
We have abused the Frist Amendment.
We have feared
regulating our information.
We must see the necessity of
maintaining a fully informed electorate as important as keeping a standing
army.
If we #TestVoters, we will more likely have an electorate
who know the truth of current events, history, and civics, as naturally
curious information readers.
Less likely will be millions of
misdirected voters, as we see today, everywhere.
I would
include voter testing clause within Amendment 28, Public Campaign
Financing.
I want every voter to be proud and feel honored,
and not to have the feeling of a granted right, that can be un-appreciated
in its use, sometimes far too casually "Let's give him a try, why not!?"
Laze-fare voter participation.
We use democracy to run the
testing component of voter registration.
A council of elected,
term serving elders and their staff keep track of the truth, and agree on
all test questions. They are accountable. Not like Fox News.
Below;
pardon my humor, but you get the point.
If you were to slack-off of your news reading habit, for just a few
months, you might fail the current events questions in the Voter
Registration Test, and then you must wait until the next General.
The well informed voter is fundamental to good democracy; not any voter breathing.
We're learning this lesson the hard way.

Governors; you can establish a testing system for all would-be voters, to ensure your citizens understand American history, civics and the truth of current events, if they choose to participate in self government. Ironically, refusing to do so is the type of stupidity the Founders had feared could destroy their hard work. We see this currently.

WE CAN AGREE in self-governed societies like ours; it’s a matter of public safety that voters make choices based on logic and demonstrate before voting, they are capable of doing so.

A common misconception is that because Congress lowered the voting age
from 21 to 18-years, that they can pass a nationwide change to the
process of voting for all Americans.
No, they wrote a Constitutional Amendment that the States later
ratified.
A new Amendment to our constitution is like a change to the United
States itself; it's our supportive skeleton.
It's one way to stop the next TV celebrity asshole from lying to tens of millions and becoming the president.
I don’t see a better long-term plan to protect democracy from idiots.
Medicine to Live is a Social Welfare Case for Eminent Domain over Big Pharma
In a short time, the cost of living (being alive) has skyrocketed for Americans at the profit whims of a few who own and control life saving medications. Welcome to capitalism, unfettered.
This crisis has reached an outrageous level of indecency. The profit machine of big pharmaceutical giants has been modifying and growing since the 1960’s and fueled by the corruption of money on politics.
Image: How did this happen? With control in full, the people will never see this again:
prescription drug spending to inflation; Kaiser image
It's time we gain political courage for the welfare of the people, and end the crisis of existence of millions who live by a thread to the end of life, for the profits of the pharmaceutical giants.
Image: other nations comparison
An answer to this craziness is for this country to use eminent domain to own all pharmaceutical resources collectively. It's clear by now; we need protecting from this evil that has lasted far too long with no end in sight. Full control over the for-profit scoundrels is an area of social welfare that the Declaration of Independence was talking about if a document could speak. We can't thrive; the opportunity is robbed from millions by the misfortune of their bodies. It's life for God's sake. Eminent Domain. We take it all.
The welfare of all of us depends on a comprehensive and more permanent solution. We have used the tool for far less critical reasons than to give the people this vital necessity so they can live. I want this human service to be democratically controlled, and this madness to stop once and for all.
The constitutional path is transparent, and it's time to put our feet down and demand that private industry not be exempt from this vital solution. I live near New London, Connecticut, where the SCOTUS ruled it was okay for the government to take land from the public to give it to a private developer, to profit so that the city could raise more property tax funds.

The quantum teleportation that Anton Zeilinger hypothesizes is the beginning of molecular transport. That ability to send immense and secure and unchangeable data in the form of the information of the atomic level of understanding of matter, waits beyond and hopefully soon because the world needs this big answer.
Graphic below via Wikipedia: A channel of information and primarily conceived of (now) as a communication (ultimate security) tunell of instantaneous transport of information. I say, waiting for innovation to turn that information into any carbon based object living or inanimate.
I wish that he would get together with Don Eigler (physics of nanometer-scale structures) and realize the potential in utility to solve the Earth's transportation of food, first. Then further great changes like: the elimination of money in societies one by one as MTP pads are installed.
Yes those are atoms (above). Assembled artificially with a tunneling microscope run by a computer program. Nearly 12 years ago. How much further now? Links below.
Molecular Teleportation pads; direct quantum information tunnels that send immense quantum packets of molecular data. I am saying: all of the information we can collect to the most finite degree of any caron assemblage that anyone would want - as in depth as the atomic structure of any carbon based object. Plant life, real meats you name it, directly to homes and distribution centers. Money becomes something to stuff in your walls for insulation.
At home the receiver gets a gourmet meal in seconds. A football for his son. A perfect replica of a full set of crystal champagne glasses. A new iholophone, they name it.
The Foreseen Industry of the Elemental Block:
Nothing is created from nothing. The elements we build and grow all that we need are here. We have found them. Processing plants can use large MTPs that gather our elements from throughout the world using worker aerial drones that pick-up what they need and deliver them back to Block processing refineries (very future high tech form of farming). Those refineries employ millions. They would send Elemental Blocks using larger industrial MTP platforms to the (Trekian) Replicators that are quantum connected to a block distributer. Dig, a home or industrial replicator needs this matter to “print,” all formed matter.
Each replicator will have enough Elemental Block leftover, always, to transform the data for a new (refill) Elemental Block, since much of the matter needed for transformation can be withdrawn from the space we live in. The oxygen, the water, minerals in our environmental air, many gasses, a cup of dirt from the backyard may be needed now and then. The replicator will tell if you need to do that. Technicians will enjoy employment servicing them. A customized block for your household can be achieved. One that contains your average elemental use. Just don't make too many luxury cars. However the questions start; who pays for the initial labor that must be capitalistically exploited to begin production of everything? Like, who builds the aerial drones that collect elements? Who finds the elements? Answers; we begin an investment in each of these technologies. We invest in new young scientists. We invest in education like never before. We have to do this. We use the money we have left, we put an expiration date on all of our cash and gold and anything we have used abusively in our past. That date on that cash is good for a trade up to the day with our replicators are ready. At first, that replication may be a large industrial unit at your local grocer. Later, on the street corner. Later, in every modern home. Later, in the center of every village and town on Earth.
In a quasi utopian (Trekian) society where all have whatever they need and most get what they want can all then sit on our asses and invent things! We can choose our fields and change our careers and educate ourselves beyond our wildest dreams with the time we have purchased by becoming a society that does not care about money.
We’ll find out who our geniuses really are, how many of them must have been passed over by society in our past. We’ll find our creative geniuses.
We’ll discover amazing things about all of nature and the cosmos when many of us had previously thought there was little else to find - because many more of us will have the time to slow down and observe and think and find themselves.
We will give thanks to both quantum technology and atomic reconstruction technology, that’s combined science allows the technology of 3D printing to soon become our home Replicators.
It’s all coming together folks. Get ready for a hopeful future brought to you by Gene Roddenberry and all writers of the futuristic and DREAMING and HOPING (yes I yelled at you).
Yaayy, after that we can all sit on our asses - more often!
Update: 30 minutes later: Shit. This is a great idea but also a great way to hollow out every planet in every system near us, making elemental blocks for our replicators to always have MORE STUFF. Shit. Back to money.
Shit. Big Block stores taking over the countrysides!
Real Block Wars.
Block Wars VII The Replicators Awaken, coming to a paid streaming service near you.
Don Eigler: Lift: http://www.nanotech.upenn.edu/news_images/don_eigler.html “Don Eigler is a physicist who has specialized in the development and use of low temperature scanning tunneling microscopes. His research is aimed at understanding the physics of nanometer-scale structures and exploring the applications of nanometer-scale structures to computing.” Wicki lift: Quantum teleportation is a process by which quantum information (e.g. the exact state of an atom or photon) can be transmitted (exactly, in principle) from one location to another, with the help of classical communication and previously shared quantum entanglement between the sending and receiving location. Because it depends on classical communication, which can proceed no faster than the speed of light, it cannot be used for faster-than-light transport or communication of classical bits. While it has proven possible to teleport one or more qubits of information between two (entangled) atoms,[1][2][3] this has not yet been achieved between molecules or anything larger. Although the name is inspired by the teleportation commonly used in fiction, there is no relationship outside the name, because quantum teleportation concerns only the transfer of information. Quantum teleportation is not a form of transport, but of communication; it provides a way of transporting a qubit from one location to another, without having to move a physical particle along with it.
