Well .... 10 years is a long time. Our forum (Roberts) is not that old.

And yet String Theory with its promises and problems is still with us. Despite the growing throng of detractors, informed and uninformed, vociferously predicting its almost certain demise, it remains.

Not only remains, but has not taken, in all that time a mortal wound. It has not furthered its promises, it has not solved its problems, but it has not been extinguished.

What do you think ? Worthy of consideration or not!
