This
story from
Scientific American is about a new contender for TOE-The Theory of Everything. It seems that to compete with all the stuff coming out of biology physicists have to push forward strange ideas as unintelligible as they are grandiloquent every year. I doubt this is going to be the definitive TOE, but one of them will stick. It helps that the physicist portrayed in the story is a young Greek woman. Thanks to
/. for pointing it out.
I'll really start to pay attention to when
O'reilly comes out with
The Definitive TOE: Explaining the universe and load balancing it too.
