He mentions that physics is a fun distraction for him.

He tells his occupation- which incidentally- has raised my respect for Thomheg a wee bit.

He goes on to talk about the GUT- trying to unify Relativity with Quantum Mechanics. He rejects String Theory because it has 26 dimensions, 11 ( I think) of which are curled up into a little ball or something.
Anyway- He muses that more than Ten Dimensions is impossible for no other reason than ummm... Cuz he doesn't like it.

[Heck, I don't like it much either.

I like String Theory because it's fun to play with, but I don't like String Theory. <shrug>]

He then gets into antisymmetry and ummm...
He says some stuff about how it doesn't really make sense. Somehow.

Then he goes on to say that if the par....

You know what?
No.
I can't decipher it. Sorry.
