:::It remains to be seen whether quantum entanglement transfers information instantaneously; there is no reason under [[quantum mechanics]] to doubt that possibility. The [[theory of relativity]] rejects any instantaneous action-at-a-distance, whether there is a transfer of information or not, and hence its fundamental conflict with [[QM]].--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 22:06, 15 August 2009 (EDT)

I think it is slightly misleading to claim that Newtonian gravity and electrostatics are non-local theories since although, when they were originally formulated, they were implcitly believed to be such, they have now both been superceded by more comprehensive theories (General Relativity and Electromagnetism respectively) which support locality.
