A universe that displays local phenomena but upon a non-local reality is the only sort of world consistent with known facts and Bell's proof. - Nick Herbert

If a friend in Texas seals a silver coin in one envelope and a gold coin in another and mails the envelopes to Tokyo and London, the instant you open you envelope in Japan you know the contents of my envelope in England. But opening your letter causes no physical change in England (faster-than-light or otherwise) but merely involves a change in your knowledge concerning something happening far away and outside your control.

Most everywhere, most of the time, the world dwells in an unmeasured state.

The entire visible universe, what Bishop Berkley called "the mighty frame of the world," rests ultimately on a strange quantum kind of being no more substantial than a promise.
