The scientists have therefore succeeded in bridging the gap from the microworld to the macroworld, and thus from quantum mechanics to the General Theory of Relativity

But can they do the math? Conceptual and descriptive models are powerful heuristics and empirical results are the coin of the realm, but in the end, even Einstein had to have the help of professional mathematicians to work out the abstruse mathematical basis of his theories.

So I always wonder, where are the numbers guys, who live far beyond mortal ken?

That wAs easy. Now can we have an explanation of the proposed invasion of Syr?

mentos (or rather the chemical makeup) and bicarbonate soda = quantum gravity expulsion (imho)

I like it. It makes sense.

Einstein’s original “Theory of Relativity” went like this:

“Everyone has relatives”!

(except perhaps for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, test-tube creations from primordel slime).

Still ignoring the biggest source of energy in the universe, in order to pretend that one of the weakest did the job.

Order up a bunch of imaginary dark matter folks.

Scissors cuts paper,
paper covers rock,
rock crushes lizard,
lizard poisons Spock,
Spock smashes scissors,
scissors decapitates lizard,
lizard eats paper,
paper disproves Spock,
Spock vaporizes rock,
and as it always has, rock crushes scissors.

Well of course it does. If we assume that God manifested dimension space and dimension time from the simplest expression to the more complex, point becomes linear, becomes planar, becomes volume. Moment becomes linear and we sense that linear as past —we look back along a time line—then linear becomes planar and we sense that expression as present then planar becomes volumetric and we imagine that as future. every thing and every event inside spacetime as God created it has some expression of dimension space and some expression of dimension time. As the Universe exists,Time is a volume entertwined with the volume of Space.

When something doesn’t work, just add in something imaginary and carry on; pass go; collect grant funds.

Return to step one.

SO.... these tiny cells perform cohesively. Larger structures are made of these tiny cells. Those larger structures are confined somehow into even larger structures and that is all contained within some super-super structure.

Sounds a lot like the constituency of ‘matter’, including our bodies.

Pot smokers who thought that we were just bacteria on a cell that made up an organ that was with other organs inside a larger structure that kept them ‘together’... just might have been right.

Correct. And in our limited way it can be explained in our limited way.

Oriti and his colleagues thus see themselves at the start of a difficult but promising journey. Their current solution is valid only for a homogeneous universe - but our real world is much more complex. It contains inhomogeneities, such as planets, stars and galaxies.

They've hit a brick wall so it's time to do a press release.

I sometimes wonder if all these theoretical physicists working on the BBT don’t laugh their a$$ off and high five each other when they think no one else is looking.

If it continues to prove successful, the researchers could perhaps use it to explain also the assumed inflationary expansion of the universe shortly after the Big Bang as well, and the nature of the mysterious dark energy.

And why a slice of toast when dropped always lands buttered side down.
