  Entangled EPR spin pairs can be treated using the statistical ensemble
interpretation of quantum mechanics. As such the singlet state results from an
ensemble of spin pairs each with an arbitrary axis of quantization. This axis
acts as a quantum mechanical hidden variable. If the spins lose coherence they
disentangle into a mixed state. Whether or not the EPR spin pairs retain
entanglement or disentangle, however, the statistical ensemble interpretation
resolves the EPR paradox and gives a mechanism for quantum "teleportation"
without the need for instantaneous action-at-a-distance.
