My very limited understanding of string theory is that it has so many degrees
of freedom that it can fit pretty much anything. It also means that there is
no way to test anything, since it can produce any desired result more or less
arbitrarily.
I used to work near (not with) these guys. I had dinner with one on Saturday.
Next time I will ask him. I am much intrigued by the recent results on
faster-than-light travel, the missing Higgs boson, and the implications for the
Standard Model. These two results could have a profound impact on our ideas
about reality.

Agreed, Michael. Some of the latest thoughts in the "String Theory" revival
are now leaning in that direction too. Anyone know if the math has gotten that
far yet?
Cheers!!

explain the probabilistic behavior. We don't know what happens to them when
they are out of our dimensions, but it is clearly systematic as shown by their
predictability.
