Your Own Little World

The article The Reality Tests was really hard to understand for me. I know very little about quantum mechanics other than it presents a theory of how the universe works contradictory to just about every other theory out there. So for the most part this article went over my head, there was a lot of it that I just couldn't follow because I don't possess the scientific background necessary to understand the concepts being discussed.

What I did get for the article was that there is currently a team of physicists who are exploring the idea of reality and what reality truly is. The idea that we create the world we see around us because of our limited ability to perceive true reality while rather frightening to me is really quite interesting. Apparently our human bodies can barely even begin to take in true reality because the way we observe the universe, through our senses, just isn't even remotely precise enough. So how do we tell what true reality is if our minds have to construct our own world because they are incapable of completely understanding the quantum mechanics reality? I don't know about you but this idea has my imagination up and running. This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "in your own little world".
