Dear Dr. Hogan:

It just occurred to me that there may be another, simpler way to put my question. Are the conclusions you reach in your book falsifiable? I have read that when spiritualists argue that wave function collapse is a function of consciousness scientists retort by arguing that the conclusion is unscientific because it is not falsifiable, referring, I believe, to Karl Popper's thesis in Conjectures and Refutations: The Growth of Scientific Knowledge, that a conclusion must be falsifiable to be scientific.
