Hi dipayanker,
Are you saying, by your answer to my plee, that the t.o.e, if there is one, is in fact no more than a theory of only some things? If this is the case do you think that it might make sense for those who are still searching for it to have a list of things that it might relate to and a list of thing that it doesn't relate to? Or, are you suggesting that the understanding of and the knowledge and skill required to be able to repair my motor has nothing to do with physics, if, this is the case, so that I can understand, would you please help me by, in simple lay language, to understand what you consider Physics to be? in anticipation.......arthur
