Don't worry, no-one pays any attention to Enki anyway.

“I’m guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk,” Charles Wick said. “It was very complicated.”

You could try Robert Gilmore's Alice In Quantumland. That's about as easy as I've ever heard it explained.
Or you could try George Gamow's Mr. Tompkins In Paperback, which was the original attempt to explain how basic quantum theory worked in simple language. It also has a great drinking song going from the beginning to the end of creation in ten verses.

If you are all going to insist on using Quantum Theory to back up your ill-concieved and fact-lite ideas about reality, lets actually make sure we all know what we are talking about first.

And I can think of worse ways to do that then with this guide http://scienceblogs.com/pontiff/2007/11/learn_quantum_theory_in_ten_mi.php
very interesting, good info
