Well i am using English, and i do intend to question all the theories put forward to explain the universe, no disrespectful intent, i tend to withdraw from discussions if they get heated, but the question stands. And by the way, the word (stupid) is inflammatory, i suggest you restrict it to the ones that have been proven so.

Made my night reading this it should become a classic.

Wow KLB you are a good un, i have felt guilty for using plastic shopping bags when i go to the super market, so i have switched to home shopping, everything comes in reusable boxes, and it voids the use of my car, my car is one of the most fuel efficient i could find within my price range, it is a 1400cc diesel 60+ mpg driven with care.

Can any one name one thing that has increased our knowledge of how the universe began or how it came into existence? When i say (KNOWLEDGE), i mean anything that has a 99% CL. or may be we can go in decending order of CL but, nothing below 95%.

Martin, Thanks for the reply, it must have took some effort Yes i am aware of the many approaches to QL, it seems there is a new one every month, it still has a lot of catching up with the string vacua's in number however. I am also aware of the difficulty of getting grant money for anything other than loop or string. And i am aware of the lack of tests for these conjectures, even if a test is put forward some one will right a paper on how to get around a null result. Martin, what will it take to kill, and put these conjectures out of their misery once and for all?

It is a matter of belief in one theory or the other, maybe you think string theory is right, maybe you think quatum loop gravity is right, the test of these theories are all ways open to dispute, when will we have tests that show these conjectures are just so right or wrong? I dare say that the grant system will suppress any new thinking progress in the understanding of our universe.

Hey, come on now, you will soon be able to wear your puter, or not in the far future have it implanted in your brain (shudder), the only prob is where to put the scanner printer.

You acctually mean you dont use jell packs????????

I am sure others are with you on this

I did mean for (work) I would have thought the novelty of playing games on a puter had died off by now, surly the time is better spent with a game of footie or cricket.

I used to do all my work on a desk top, but now i think the DT is obsolete, why be tied to a desk?

http://www.cosmosmagazine.com/node/714 And this one. Supersymmetry is a theory that predicts a 'super' partner for every known particle (and antiparticle). While supersymmetry is a well-founded theory, the exact mathematical details are disputed among the scientific community. The more popular models of supersymmetry predict a much higher transition rate than three trillion times per second. This is a serious blow to particle physicists, as these popular models will now have to be reconsidered. And it's hard to challenge these new findings: the physicists are 99.99999992 per cent sure that they're right.

I admit i have reached a dead end in my search for a Dark Matter candidate, is there some one who has a deeper understanding of the topic ,and is willing to enlighten me with his/her knowledge as to what Dark Matter is?
