Abstract

I argue that Bell?s argument for nonlocality is the result of an error in the use of Bayes? formula. By correcting this error all derivations of Bell Inequalities become impossible. Further, I show by direct construction and simulation that the data from EPR- and GHZ-type experiments can be explained by the classical formulas for higher order correlations. Additionally, I argue that irreality is a consequence of the assumption that QM is complete. Superposition of mutually exclusive states arise in classical mechanics for coupled oscillators where the energy sloshes back and forth between two modes.
