I used to work on a government contract and had to take a whole tool kit
with me.  Screwdrivers, pliers, volt meter even.  Security passed me through
with no trouble at all.  And this was just a couple years before 9-11.

Einstein never accepted quantum mechanics because of this element of chance
and uncertainty. He said: God does not play dice. It seems that Einstein was
doubly wrong. The quantum effects of black holes suggests that not only does
God play dice, He sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen.
