Tales and Tails and Stuff and Nonsense

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

In an informal way I review collapse models and my part in constructing them, and I recall some encounters with Abner Shimony. In particular, I address the question of the nature of spacetime reality in collapse models, stimulated by Abner's criticism of the "tail" possessed by statevectors in such models.
