If it’s unobserved it will, however, if it’s observed after it’s left the plane but before it hits its target, it will not have gone through both slits.
Leonard: Agreed, what’s your point?
Sheldon: There’s no point, I just think it’s a good idea for a tee-shirt.
Leonard (to receptionist): Excuse me?
Receptionist (pondering a crossword): Hang on.
Leonard: One across is Aegean, eight down is Nabakov,twenty-six across is MCM, fourteen down is… move your finger… phylum,which makes fourteen across Port-au-Prince.See, Papa Doc’s capital idea, that’s Port-au-Prince.Haiti.
Receptionist: Can I help you?
Leonard: Yes. Um, is this the… High IQ sperm bank?
Receptionist: If you have to ask, maybe you shouldn’t be here.
Sheldon: I think this is the place.
Receptionist: Fill these out.
Leonard: Thank-you. We’ll be right back.
Receptionist: Oh, take your time. I’ll just finish my crossword puzzle. Oh wait.
Sheldon: Leonard, I don’t think I can dothis.
Leonard: What, are you kidding? You’re a semi-pro.
Sheldon: No. We are committing genetic fraud. There’s no guarantee that our sperm is going to generate high IQ offspring, think about that. I have a sister with the same basic DNA mix who hostesses at Fuddruckers.
