String Theory Envisions A Multiverse In Which

We're On This Planet For The Briefest Of Moments In Cosmic Terms, And I Want To Spend That Time Thinking About What I Consider The Deepest Questions.

I Enjoy Reading Blogs, But Am Not Interested In Having My Spurious Thoughts Out There.

In Quantum Mechanics There Is A Causing B. The Equations Do Not Stand Outside That Usual Paradigm Of Physics. The Real Issue Is That The Kinds Of Things You Predict In Quantum Mechanics Are Different From The Kinds Of Things You Predict Using General Relativity. Quantum Mechanics, That Big, New, Spectacular Remarkable Idea Is That You Only Predict Probabilities, The Likelihood Of One Outcome Or Another. That's The New Idea.

The Main Challenge That Television Presents Is That I Have A Tendency To Say Things With A Great Deal Of Precision And Accuracy. Often A Description Of That Sort, Which Will Work In A Book Because People Can Read It Slowly - They Can Turn The Pages Back And So On - Doesn't Really Work On Tv Because It Interrupts The Flow Of The Moving Image.

My Emotional Investment Is In Finding Truth. If String Theory Is Wrong, I'd Like To Have Known That Yesterday. But If We Can Show It Today Or Tomorrow, Fantastic.
