Dear Bottomlander:
I could not agree with you more.
As far as Truly Yours is concerned, 'Superstrings', and the entire concept of string theory, may as well have been written by the gifted mathematician, Lewis Carroll - who was candid enough to let us know he was putting us on in the first, second and third places...
String Theory: a fortress of numbers founded on a house of cards, balanced on the back of a turtle, standing on an ensemble of previously uninventoried reptiles perched on a cloud of pink smoke reflected in a funhouse of mirrors. Noteworthy that Lakshya's intuition - if not refined insight - suggested (if not suspected?) as much.
Until further notice, I consider string theory (The elegantly counted out universe) to be an enormous diversion from time and effort better expended.
Thank you, sir.
Regards,
