thanks ignatios, this are the kind of explanations i want to hear.
so, it was possible to _measure_ the polarization, that certainly
verifies the existance of 'something', was there any time measurement
done in this experiment?
(speed greater than light between point A 11km apart from point B)

yes, interesting phenomenon, that the measurement influences the measured
, but i can say that this happens to me all the time in the lab when i
put my oscilloscope probe near some HF radio circuit.
i know im not talking about the 'same physics', but the same phenomenon is
there.
