Is Quantum Intuition Possible?

The work of Couder et al. on oil droplets might show a way for more of a "quantum intuition". It's a pity that the article does not mention this work.

See eg. http://arxiv.org/abs/1401.4356

Here's another more layman presentation with a great video, and its previous discussion at HN.

Thanks for that link, I know a lot of people who do physics demonstrations. They probably will love this! (And have seen it already, but that's beside the point)

You can watch some of those effects if you are careful with a polystyrene cup full of coffee dragged slowly over a formica table.
