It was rather an interesting article because it explanes that you have an alter ego who is liveing in a different Universe and time. Actually you have an infinite amount of you's liveing in an infinite amount of Universes. But each one of you is different in some way. Like in one reality your the richest man or woman alive. and then in the next one your dead and then another one your poor.
It was a strange artical but it was something rather interesting.
It was in a Popular Mechanics Magazine. I was in the store at the time and the title caught my eye when it explaned Parallel Universes actually exist. I was like "oh wow" and I read the article. Unfortunately that was a month ago and I can probabaly go find the Magazine, take a picture of the article, and post it here, but that will be just a waist of time and money on my part just to go do that!:

I don't think that article does a good job explaining basic quantam physics.
The idea that there is a double or multiples (I've never heard of multiples, only doubles) of the same object somewhere in the universe is based on the fact that subatomic particles are always bonded in pairs, and that these particles share the exact same properties. However, they are not necessarily bonded physically; this means one particle could be at one end of the universe, whereas the other particle could be on the other end of the universe, and they would still have the same observable qualities. Therefore, parallel universes MUST exist, because due to quantam physics laws, there must be another universe like ours. Although it wouldn't be different in any way, it would still be there.
This is also how teleportation is achievable.
But another property of all particles explained in quantam physics is that nothing exists until it is observed. This is quite obvious, but it's rather interesting if you think about it.
But this creates a problem with quantam physics. Everyone observes the same things differently. This was the example I was given. You see a bowl of cheese on the table that has 5 oz. of cheese in it. You may think that's not very much cheese, but I make think it's a lot. Therefore, if people look at the same particles, but observe them differently, weird shit happens -- dunno what though.
You know... there were actually some people somewhere that teleported a piece of data using quantam computers. They teleported a small picture 1 foot from one computer to the other. Quite interesting.
Whoa... that's just about all the thinking I can handle in a 10 minute time span.
