NOVA | The Elegant Universe | PBS
I have watched, with some delight, a program presented on PBS and Nova, the Elegant Universe. The idea of the String Theory gives me something to think about, but for me, though I am fascinated by philosophy and theories, I have no great ambition to think or wonder at the deep secrets that our universe holds.
For example, though I watch the String Theory, I am not at once held to be consumed days and nights by whether the string theory works. It is a theory for theoretical physicists, their plaything, in other words. I have my own playthings, for which I have no theories, only observations.
