Just browsing I found this one too. He obviously takes the trouble to check the detail, which I like, and presents it well. :-)

Cheers, Mike.

Well, there you go! In fact Feynman did say something along those lines regarding string theory ie. being unguided by experiment. And the lack of concern about that by the theorists themselves. I now cringe a bit every time I see Michio Kaku do a promo on Discovery Channel - it's all sounding a bit lame now. The LHC, Higgs or no Higgs, won't be saving string theory.

Cheers, Mike.

I read somewhere ( probably on these message boards )

That Stephen Hawking bet Prof. Higgs $100.00 that the LHC

‘Would NOT ‘ find the Higgs Boson.

Don’t know if that story is true.

According to New Scientist it is true. Looks like he loves betting.
