    But if we accept that there are 10 dimensions it makes it a lot easier to explain black holes, dark matter/energy, etc.

    I have a couple of degrees in physics. Never took a class on string theory (or even particle physics for that matter).

    OP: Post the clip about the water molecules and how easily they can be affected. One of the most interesting parts of the film IMO.

    It makes everything clear, i find more scientific material is so bloody dry because they use special words to try to make them seem above most people. My careers no different, text books have all this bullshit made up words and definitions. No one out here actually uses that language for anything.

    K.I.S.S.: Keep it simple stupid :D

    Here is a good layman's explanation of string theory, I'm a moron and I understood it:

    http://zidbits.com/2011/03/19/a-laymans-explanation-for-string-theory/

    Also watching The Elegant Universe by Briane Greene was fun. He doesn't make it complicated and uses analogies anyone can understand.

    Sorry for the late reply, was in another dimension and couldn't find my way back..

    WYSIWIG= what you see is what you get. The idea that what we see and experience is all there is to reality. I see length, width and depth, but no 4th or 10th dimensions. Black holes and expanding universe are theoretical constructs and do not exist.

    GIGO= garbage in garbage out. Old comp programming phrase - output is dependent on input. Or, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
