Einstein Right Again and Who Had the Better Mustache?

Before Physicists had the fancy instruments and "Big Bang Theory" street cred, they had to actually come up with ideas and test them in their minds.  Problems arose when theories couldn't be tested and seemed out of whack with "reality".  So it was when Albert Einstein put forth some ideas on Quantum Physics.  There was no end to challenges to his brave and strange ideas.  Albert always pointed out that it only takes one person to shoot down any of his ideas. And not many have been shot down.

So it is with Spooky Quantum Entanglement.  For some reason I don't understand, the theory means that

individual entangled particles don't exist in a particular state until they are measured, and that, once measured, the particles could somehow communicate their state to each other at a rate faster than the speed of light which seemed to violate Einstein's theory of relativity. (Recent research suggests the entangled particles interact at a speed that's 10,000 times faster than the speed of light.)

Now with the advent of the aforementioned fancy instruments, the theory has been confirmed again, eliminating a key loophole.

Einstein scores again.
