Abstract

We give a conceptually simple proof of nonlocality using only the perfect correlations between results of measurements on distant systems discussed by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen---correlations that EPR thought proved the incompleteness of quantum mechanics. Our argument relies on an extension of EPR by Schr\"odinger.
