It would be interesting to try with a different set of big bang constants - Planck's etc.

As usual, the observation will change the event it observes and thus become worthless, impossible etc.

>It occurs to me this is the proper interpretation of quantum mechanics. That you didn't have to put quantum mechanics into the model. You're supposed to get it out of the model, through the measurements of an internal observer.

Before anyone mentions "13th floor", http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070904/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 is the original. The "13th floor" doesn't really exist, it was simulated within Fassbinder's movie.
