Theusen's Engineers

Engineers, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source are placed in a sealed all-hands meeting. If an internal monitor detects radioactivity (i.e., a single atom decaying), the flask is shattered, releasing the poison that kills the engineers.

The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics implies that after a while, the engineers are simultaneously alive and dead.

The last meeting we were in made me feel like we were Theusen's Engineers.
