Meanwhile...
...in the latest issue of Nature, some physicists published an empirical refutation of
'realism' -- a viewpoint according to which an external reality exists independent of observation.
They also advocate considering
the breakdown of [...] Aristotelian logic, counterfactual definiteness, absence of actions into the past or a world that is not [sic] completely deterministic.
As far as I can tell, what they actually found is evidence against certain local hidden-variable theories that survived Bell's inequalities. Aristotelian syllogisms and realism (in the above sense) seem to be thrown out by the principle that if you throw out the bath water, you might as well throw out the whole bathroom.
Is that really all it is? I saw my boyfriend's roommate reading that article the other day and asked her about it. The title claimed that it was at least refuting <i>non</i>-local hidden variable theories as well.
