To:mkaku@aol.com



Dear Professor Kaku,

  I'm deeply interrested in physics and have studied
some of your work and find superstring theory
fascinating.   I've learned  the basics of  special
Relativity and a little of  general relativity.  I
don't know much QM theory, but I did read a book called
QED by Richard Feynman and I was very informed.
  I have recently heard about an effect called
entanglement of elecrons.  It has to do with
superposition.  Here is what I'm wondering about..
  When electrons are tangled, when one is "flipped",
does the other one "flip" through lines of simultaniety, 
which would be non-local?
  This led me to reasoning that, if this is true, then 
what would happen if one of the tangled pair is put 
into a particle accelerator toward the speed of light
producing the twin paradox between the particles?
  I guess the question is, if the  tangle holds 
temporally together from the time they were tangled,
by using this method is it possible to construct a 
working time travel experiment using electron "flips"
throught the twin paradox?
  I'm sorry I have to cut this short, I'm on a time 
share computer.

Thank you,
Jason Shields
