   seconds in this example). So, it would be like this.

   The receiver does not recieve anything. He just has a box with entangled   
   waweforms/particles, and no way to tell if the sender has observed any of them.   
      
   e.g when he observes one, it collapses, and he does not know if it was already   
   collapsed.
