The Great Smokey Dragon

I read this excerpt on doc Jensen and thought it very interesting. I cut & pasted it.

“But my favorite discovery about John Wheeler ‘ the one that gave me chills ‘ was the colorful, monstrous term he invented for Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle. Wheeler called it…”The Great Smokey Dragon.” Wheeler came up with the phrase after the famous Copenhagen debate between Einstein and Bohr, in which the latter scientist argued that the uncertainty principle always allows for a glitch in a system, a fatal flaw in any well-ordered plan. You might say that The Great Smokey Dragon…changes the rules. But lest you wonder if I’m merely projecting Wheeler onto Lost, as opposed to identifying Wheeler within Lost, I offer this proof: John Wheeler’s middle name.

It’s Archibald.

Long for Archie, (from the Archie comics his best friend was Jughead Jones who has his own comic ‘time-police’)

John Archibald Wheeler.

John. Archie. Bald. Wheeler.

Or in other words …

John Locke.”
