Tova:
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams contains a quite good explanation of Schroedinger's Cat, and it's a fantastic book to read besides.

I did consider the potential paradox while I was posting. I can see two potential resolutions for this. Normally I don't make my predictions known to the forum, and Jeph still does more-or-less the opposite of what I expected. In my opinion that means that whether I state my prediction or not, he's still going to do something I wasn't expecting. That's the first (and I believe most likely) outcome.
The alternative is that now I've predicted two different things, he'll do something which is neither of them. Something really unexpected which I couldn't possibly have predicted. Something interesting and novel. Something really out of left field... which might of course turn out to be incredibly awesome and funny.
These outcomes as well as the ones I deem even less likely are all good. Sometimes I care too a little too much about the characters, and really want one thing or another to happen. That's not the case here. I'm quite happy to just enjoy the ride regardless of destination.
