[edit] Why I renamed it "Quantum Logic"

I've read a lot about this subject and it's always called "quantum logic", never "quantum reason". For evidence, try some of the papers and books in the References for this article, starting with the Birkhoff--von Neumann paper cited at the beginning. As the article notes, they called this subject "quantum logic" --- not "quantum reason". --John Baez 11:01, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revert to older version

Something screwed up and I had to revert to an older version.

I removed the category: theorems since quantum logic isn't a theorem. user: Gene Ward Smith

[edit] Disambiguation

"Quantum logic" first makes me think of the processing elements needed for Quantum computers. David R. Ingham 05:48, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

As used in the article, it's standard. --CSTAR 13:11, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Article history

What happened to the revision history of this article? --CSTAR 15:39, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

This appears to be the last version with the full edit history [1]. Subsequently, the edit history got obliterated by what seems (to me at least) to be a copy-and-paste rename rather than a move.--CSTAR 16:40, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Whoever is deleting the material on the limitations of quantum logics concerned with super-geometry and non-commutative geometry please stop! If you don't understand the comment, contact me: dedwards@math.uga.edu
