Also, I'm pretty sure he pronounced the vowel in "See" like English "sea," rather than rhyming with "weigh." It bothered me because I would think the son of a German immigrant would be able to pronounce his father's nickname.

I've been on 6 years and 208 days ... I've paid hundreds of dollars and to this point, eharmony hasn't produced a suitable match for me. The whole eharmony thing is very sad.

But yeah he says "Quantum physics says" that was not very smart, thought neither seemed the girl, so I guess that might have been his reason to not mind being not so very accurate. I just went back to the episode and he does mention Schrödinger's cat at first.. Simon: Are you aware of the Double Slit Experiment? ? Camille: Well, there was that one time in college... Simon: What about Schrödinger's cat? Camille: No, I'm not that kinky. yeah bad move from the show's writers.. And the common thing between the 2 experiments is the uncertainty principle, so I'm guessing that is what caused the flash-forwards..

It's been about 20 years since I took German in high school, and nobody really speaks it on a regular basis in my family anymore. I wonder why the closed captioning used "die".
