"Surfer Dude Discovers Theory of Everything" Antony Garrett Lisi, has proposed a theory of particle physics based on the Lie group E8 (discovered and researched by Wilhelm Killing and Elie Cartan). Lisi's theory is described as associating 226 known fundamental particles with 226 of the 248 symmetries of E8, with the balance presumably corresponding to as-yet-undiscovered particles. (Googling will provide more information on this theory...) Steve

As I said, do you have a problem with fundamental research without an eye to application and think all of that is a waste of time? You said no new knowledge would come of that. > The best minds of those days stongly > advised temporal rulers to invest into that; besides, it seemed like > they are accomplishing some result.

And most of the discoveries today are still being done with very limited resources and a small group of researchers. However, it's also true that in a few areas, larger investments have made, and it's no different today than it was back then. > What I am saying is Standard Model got > stuck; there is a need for new ideas. As I told you, those new ideas are precisely in play at the LHC because we already know the Standard Model breaks at the 1 TeV scale. You are asking for new ideas to be tested, and the LHC is providing that for you. Why are you chagrined again? PD

Funny how the psuedo science needs peer review. How much peer needed to convince the masses that the science behind the nuclear bomb was correct?
