The role of observation1 and the attendant information lie at the heart of the problem of measurement and state reduction in quantum mechanics.2 For the past few years we have been interested in specific calculations3 associated with this type of problem and the search for potentially realizable experiments probing the influence of an observer. In the following discussion we propose and analyze an experiment such that the presence of information accessible to an observer would qualitatively change the outcome of an experiment.
