EPR-B correlations: quantum mechanics, or just geometry?
Description
Based on the observation that polarization phenomena of EM waves are geometric rather than quantum mechanical in nature, it is argued that experiments involving 'entangled polarization' do not address the issues brought up by EPR. A fully classical explanation is offered for a recent experiment of this type, and a fully classical (local and realistic) photoelectron-by-photoelectron simulation is described of ordinary two-fold experiments thought to prove Bell's 'theorem'
