An Intro to what Supertrings are

[PeteJ]

Very well put Bob.

I feel that the hardest part about expressing the make up off the Universe, is trying to use words that express meaning, without conjuring up arguments. Unfortunately most get fixated on the word and not the context it is used in. We can only use the words that best activate our sensory perception, to the Ideal trying to be conceived.

I feel that 50% of the arguments in this forum are on the context of the word, and not the meaning trying to be conceived. This is no better seen in 'Nobody's' tread, about "Nothing". All those posts arguing over the word Nothing, instead of the concept that is trying to be conceptualized.

I think you're probably right. However good string theory is, my mind can make nothing of a one-dimensional infinitely-thin string vibrating like a circular guitar string. Besides, it sounds suspiciously anthropomorphic to me, the best we can do maybe.

One problem seems to be a failure to apply the Principle of Charity. When we read something that makes their author look like an idiot, this asks us to consider the possibility that we are misinterpreting their words.
