Hello again, I have been pondering. As i wandered home from my science exams I realised that I now know how electrons work, in that they could be in many places at once. I realised this by likening a bus to an electron. And so i shall explain.

| Exhibit A |
You will need to refer to Exhibit A at all points during this explanation.
Okay.
So i stand at the bus stop, waiting for the bus - as you do - when i wonder whether it is coming. So i wander up to point A in order to see Section B.
Fundamental error.
Now if a bus behaved like an electron moving to point A would be a catastrophe for me. Because whilst i'm at the bus stop I don't know whether the bus is in Section B or not. So there is a theoretical 50% chance that it is, the other 50% is of it being in Section C. Now whilst that chance is there, the bus is more likely to be there and hence the bus is statistically more likely to come sooner.
Unfortunately as I stand at point A overviewing Section B I now know that it is not there. Therefore there is a 0% chance that it is there as I can see it isn't. This statistically means that it is less likely to come because I now know that it isn't at any point on Section B. However, because it isn't on Section B, the only place it can be is Section C.
Now it gets complicated.
If I were to move the the edge of Section B in order to see Section C; I would be ruling out the possibility of there being a bus there as well. But because it's not just any bus, and this is an electron bus, it could now be in Section B as I am no longer observing it.
And from that logic. The bus could be at the bus stop while I study Section B to realise that there is no bus there.
Of course this is total non-sense because a bus is not likenable to an electron.
PAH!
We all know electrons aren't red!
