#ScheibePopperAndQuantumLogic-2
"This paper is NOT written in order to vindicate #QuantumLogic. Rather it is written to rebut a mistaken criticism of quantum logic. The criticism is due to Popper ([1968]) and it concerns a classical paper by #Birkhoff and #vonNeumann ([1936]).

And yet ,surprisingly, the semantics of such circuits is not perfectly understood, in a sense which will be made clear immediately.
