It is shown that EPR correlations are the angular analogue to the Hanbury-Brown--Twiss effect. As insight provided by this model, it is seen that, analysis of the EPR experiment requires conditional probabilities which do not admit the derivation of Bell inequalities.
An error in the proof of Bell's Theorem is identified and a semiclassical model of the EPRB experiment is presented
It is observed that the proofs of hidden-variable no-go theorems depend on the `projection postulate,' which is seen to be contradictory with respect to spin operators in directions orthogonal to the magnetic field direction. In this light it is argued that it is less costly to abandon the projection postulate than to abandon locality and this in turn renders Hidden-Variable No-Go Theorems evadible. To buttress this point, a local realist model of the EPR experiment which ignores the constraints of the projection postulate is presented.
It is shown that correlations of dichotomic functions can not conform to results from Quantum Mechanics. Also, it is seen that the assumptions attendant to optical tests of Bell's Inequalities actually are consistent with classical physics so that in conclusion, Bell's Theorems do not preclude hidden variable interpretations of Quantum Mechanics.
