5 Questions,ctd. Where does intrinsic0 randomness0 in quantum mechanics come from, given the deterministic character of the Schrödinger equation? In which waydoesitdifferfromclassicalrandomness? Do we understand probabilistic phenomena in quantummechanics,suchas quantum0jumps0and0 tracks or Quantum0Brownian0Motion,etc.? What do we mean by a closed0 system 0 in quantummechanics,andwhyisthisanimportant notion? How does one prepare a system in a prescribedstate? 0Etc.0

32 My Manifesto I propose that, at all decent institutions of higher education, one or two days per semester will be declared to be Days of Reflection and of Protest! During these days, we will not teach or attend committee meetings, and there won t be any exercise classes. Instead, we will discuss some of the serious problems threatening our civilization, draft declarations and reach out to the media, with the aim to make it clear to all circles wielding power that we no longer accept (to mention some examples among others):
33 My Manifesto, ctd.! That internal tensions and conflicts in countries, such as the Ukraine, are solved by armed conflicts rather than by political dialogue and compromise;! that innocent people are slaughtered in ugly civil wars and by terrorist activities, such as those in Syria and Iraq;! that countries threaten other countries with warfare;! that weapons are sold to (clans) in countries plagued by civil war or other forms of unrest and conflict;! that religions are abused for purposes of power and suppression of people;! that the dignity and the rights of women are abused and offended in the name of religion;
34 My Manifesto, ctd.! that people are harassed or killed because of their race or faith;! that nothing is done against the perversions of 21 st Century Capitalism;! that the resources of Planet Earth continue to be looted shamelessly. These are but some examples of numerous problems threatening the survival of humankind in peace and dignity. Where is the Peace Movement, where are movements such as Occupy Wall Street, Survivre et Vivre? What is the Club of Rome doing? Why are the media silent about the activities of these and other groups? Why do academics not have a strong voice in political debates, anymore? *** Students and Academics raise your voices, arise!
