How many physicists does it take to change a light bulb?
Answer: None. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle makes it impossible
if you would deign to diagram this joke for us non-techy clueless types lurking here, that would be as funny as the joke would be to those in the know.
According to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, the more you know about a particle's exact location, the less you can know about its current behavior - direction, velocity, etc. And vice versa, of course - know its path and speed, and lose track of where it is on that path. So, once a physicist starts turning the lightbulb to remove it, he can no longer be certain of exactly where it is...
