Two particles in "correlation," not "communication."  Just because two
coins come up "even," that is one is heads if the other is tails, does
not mean that you can use them to send information.  The electron, or any
other event which could carry information, can not travel faster than light
even through quantum effects.  Quantum Field Theory is fully consistent with
special relativity.
