Antony Valentini is a theoretical physicist now at the Perimeter Institute in Canada. He was a student of Dennis Sciama at Cambridge University in England. Valentini has been working on an extension of David Bohm's "ontological interpretation" of quantum theory that would allow "signal nonlocality" that is forbidden in orthodox quantum theory. "Signal nonlocality" allows nonlocal quantum entanglement to be used as a stand-alone communication channel without the need of a classical light-speed limited retarded signal to unlock the entangled message from the sender to the receiver. This would be a major revolution in physics and would possible make the cosmic landscape string theory Popper falsifiable.
