Deepak Chopera is coming to Saskatoon. This your chance to hear him talk authoritatively about things he thinks he understands but clearly does not (quantum mechanics) and things he thinks he understands but is extremely unlikely to in actuality (such as death). It is your chance to buy some of his many books, and tickets to other expensive programs.
Deepak is a master of using sciencey words to make his wild speculations seem “scientific” but it quickly becomes clear, even to those of us with a minimal understanding of modern physics, that he does not understand what he is talking about. He is simply wildly extrapolating from simple physical principles to grandiose speculations.
In the end he is just a very tedious writer of science fiction.
