Re: Basic Plan.
1. Derive quantum mechanics from looking at the Stern-Gerlach experiment. Basically that all the features of Quantum Mechanics (e.g. Complex numbers, probabilities) naturally follow from taking a serious look at how the spin of electrons is affected by a magnetic field.

I think it would be absolutely awesome if you could explain what "spin" means with respect to QM. That is a concept that has never really clicked for me.
