theblindferrengi: The thing with quantum mechanics is that it is only unpredictable as very small scales. Lots of unpredictable things together become predictable. Eg: You can predict the outcome of the collision of two masses, one wont appear somewhere else because of the uncertainty of the tiny particles that make it up. So it doesn't seem to make physics bigger than molecules uncertain.
By the way I havn't stated my view here, just throwing thoughts out.
