  Quantum mechanics allows for multiple predictions for the outcome of an EPR
experiment. The correct calculation must be used, guided by the physical
conditions of the experiment. The quantum joint prediction for EPR correlation
is derived and shown to involve a single sampling. The solution for separated
measurement, where there are two private samplings, is then developed using
orthodox quantum mechanics with Luders' rule for state projection on
measurement. The separated solution is shown to duplicate the predictions of
the quantum joint solution. However, it is shown that this solution requires
superluminal transmission of information and therefore it is physically
impossible. Alternative predictions respecting special relativity are developed
using both Von Neumann projection and null projection (no projection at all).
Conditions for the proper application of state projection rules are considered
and Luders' rule is identified as the primary culprit in the EPR paradox. It
cannot be applied to EPR.
