To be honest, Fred doesn't really have any original ideas. His real contribution is taking the work of Einstein, Bohm, Bohr and others, and translating it into a more accessible format.

It is true that the experts do not all agree with each other.

For example, Everett insists that there are multiple universes, and every time a consciousness (it could be you) makes a measurement (eg checks the lottery spin machine to see what numbers have come out), the universe divides again.

However, Bohm says that the balls simply do not exist, unless and until a consciousness focuses on them - leaving open the question of what would happen to the balls, if the consciousness were to change in any way (eg it think different thoughts about the balls).
