Isn't Andromeda the Galaxy that the Milky Way is eventually going to collide with?

Last night Art Bell interviewed that famous cosmologist who is working on the brane theory, I forget his name, maybe he's not quite famous yet. He said that gravity is pulling the Milky Way and Andromeda together and eventually they will merge. I don't know if that is entirely accurate, but M31 is definitely coming our way.

Thanks RW...I just think its amazing that structures that old are still bouncing around like a set of billiard balls after the Big Break! Its important for people like me, who take all the apparent evil in the world today seriously, to remember that Earth is just a beautiful jewel in an infinity of possible worlds...Someplace, someone's going to get it right...I'm betting ALLAH will not be on the menu, there, though!
