The style of this comment is preferable to previous ones, but it is still too long and off-topic.
This looks like it might make a good blog post - though I would recommend your own blog rather than a discussion post here. A Tumblr is easy enough to set up, and then you could write a comment like "Detailed arguments [here] (link)".
Thanx for your comment!
Although it is long, as it broadly covers many blogs in a sequence on how to change your mind, I disagree about it being off topic.
However, let me remind you that it is others that have kept it "off topic" not I. Others requested that I read other blogs in order that I might see more clearly where the author was coming from and the main thrust of Less Wrong.
Yet, it is not entirely off topic, it is just that we are dealing with a very broad subject, Quantum Mechanics, and attempting to approach it from a rationalist pov. The specific topic is Amplitudes and Configurations. The foundational principles of the experiment are flawed. I have attempted to point this out. We can return to the actual experiment once we have agreed on the basic assumptions.

You're making a ton of interesting points, but please succinctify (a lot!). I mean, let people reply and stuff. I feel sorry for you writing all that knowing almost no one will see it. It's obvious you're reading LW classic posts and making discoveries, and then immediately turning around and applying them, which is great. I just think you'd do well to steep yourself in the posting norms of this forum so you can participate in a more fruitful way. Again, I for one would like to hear well-reasoned radical views.
