Description: MIT mathematician, physicist, and polymath Norbert Wiener was among the physicists who received preprints of Everett and Wheelers' Review of Modern Physics articles. Wiener at this time was developing his own alternative mathematical/interpretive framework for quantum mechanics. In this document, Everett responds to Wiener comments on his preprint, emphasizing that he disagrees that his formulation of quantum mechanics requires a notion of Lebesgue measure on a Hilbert space.
