Some things to ponder … courtesy Dov Henis.

First, check out this awesome article regarding an experiment that closes an entanglment loophole: 

A long-distance experiment rejects a challenge to quantum physics.

An old USSR joke:

Question: Is it true that the USSR-made car “Volga” makes a 90-degree turn at 100 km/hr?

Answer: Yes…. but only once.

To think about: 

- Is entanglement a “yes, but only once” affair for each entangled objects pair/group?

and, if so indeed,

- Are the states-of-systems of entangled objects decided upon separation of the objects, not upon their measurment?

Editor’s Note: Do you mean can each entangled pair only entangle once within the pair? Hence, a “yes, but only once” affair? Personally, I think they can entangle many times, each previous entanglement perhaps influencing the next. Are the measurements made on entangled pairs what influence the identity of the entangled pair? That, I cannot answer.
