It can't be intersubjectively tested, only
subjectively tested. I replied to Burgy about this
off-line, it is based on an article by Max Tegmark.
Burgy dug up Max Tegmark's website's link to the
article. I think he may have linked to it now, but
Tegmark's website is:
http://www.hep.upenn.edu/~max/
The article is called "Quantum Suicide."
The problem with the experiment is that no one other
than the researcher would be able to attest to the
multiverse theory. So it still fails in terms of
intersubjective agreement as I recall.
