Max Born’s other great cultural contribution, besides the probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, is his granddaughter Olivia Newton-John.
You can see the family resemblance. (4/n)

I guess the point here, if there is one, is that Olivia Newton-John’s “Physical,” which admonished the listener to “get physical,” was a forceful restatement of her grandfather’s objection to Einstein’s reticence over the probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics. (5/n)
