People in America takes string theory research like a class of "cold war". Instead of developing new bombs or airplanes for showing USA "supremacy", they are demonstrating his power like super country from science advances. Of course the rest of countries do jokes on real status of string theory. Number of people working in string theory at spain is small.
I agree. I still have not met 1 single Spanish person interested or who even knows about string theory (out of toequest). And I don't even imagen of getting to know someone working on it....

ps: My post 800!
