Recent discussion is bringing renewed attention to Einstein's role as a
founder and critic of quantum theory.

The quantum theory of radiation was Einstein's brainchild, yet he
rejected it finally. The outcome of the Aspect experiments which found
Bell's Inequalities to be incorrect showed that Einstein was dead wrong
about quantum theory. Reality is non-local.

Hmmmmm. Some of the physicists cited in the article seem to disagree
with you, Bob.

Aspect, in his paper, explicity leaves open doubt for the solid
validity of the experiment; something that is overlooked by those who
claim it as "absolute" proof.
The small percentage of photons that are actually detected, versus
those that are "sent", leaves a gap so wide that Bohm could drive a
cat through it.

Better versions of the Aspect experiment continue to falsify Bell's
Inequalities. Most likely, reality is non-local.

And some don't. Getting meaning, as opposed to predictions, from QM is
pretty difficult.
