Pilot waves: oil droplets model quantum behavior

Truly one of the most remarkable and important things I have seen in a very long time.

When combined with Quantum Information Theory that shows QM as 'just' a probability theory, and simple axiomatic approaches like Lucien Hardy's "Quantum Theory From Five Reasonable Postulates":

Some of the mystery of spooky QM, long perpetuated by the Copenhagen Interpretation, is finally falling away.

Really interesting! Here's the related paper: http://www.europhysicsnews.org/index.php?option=com_article&...

I'd love to try to reproduce the Young's double slits experiment at home with silcone droplet walkers! The paper says that the silicone oil is 20 times more viscous than water . Any idea of household oils with similar viscosities?
