Worried about physics when a fungus is about to destroy the world’s banana crop? Get real.

Yup. The Banana Famine is upon us and the Strategic Banana Reserve’s just about tapped out. And all these guys can talk about is the fine structure of the universe.

Yeah, I miss the days when physicists did something practical, like maybe working on a better way to transmit power over long distances.

Now they spend (waste?) all their time, money, and effort investigating things like string theory. By the way, there is no hard experimental evidence for string theory at all. Yet it’s a big deal. Kinda like chasing after imaginary unicorns because someone drew a picture of one.

Side point: I taught college freshman physics for a time. But I knew I had no future in college teaching. As you can see from above, I have the wrong attitude.
