When is a Fetus Like Schrodinger's Cat?

Q: When is a Fetus Like Schrodinger's Cat?

A: When a Catholic hospital in Colorado defended itself in a law suit.

If a pregnant woman dies would you rather be responsible for a single death or for three? (She was bearing twins.)  One family's tragedy is a source of humor for the shameless. Of course now the health care system and its lawyers have to confront a doctrinal debate: Catholic doctrine has life beginning at birth.  Colorado law has life beginning at delivery.

And while I'm at it - don't look for a logical association - P.G.Wodehouse is quoted as saying after reading Norman Mailer's novel "The Naked and the Dead"
Isn't it incredible that you can print in a book nowadays stuff which when we were young was found only on the walls of public lavatories.
- NYTimes review of his letters by Dwight Garner (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/31/books/p-g-wodehouse-a-life-in-letters.html)  Garner liked Wodehouse's novels, but not his letters.
