TGD does not belong to that class of theores.<BR/><BR/>TGD has explained quite a number of anomalies in a simple manner from same basic bits of new physics again and again so that there are hopes that explanations are also nearly correct. I believe that this anomaly oriented approach is the only manner to develop a new theory: consider only the development of quantum theory. String models have been a glaring exception in this respect and the outcome is the proposal that we should give up totally the idea about predictive physical theory.<BR/><BR/>There are of course huge number of anomalies that I have never heard and there is a long list of problems in biology and neuroscience waiting for application of TGD. <BR/> <BR/><BR/>The unmet challenge is to build a computational machinery for TGD. I am too old to achieve this. My hope is that a sufficiently high pile of explained anomalies could motivate young brains to finally take TGD seriously and meet the challenge. This kind of recognition would not affect my personal wellfare but with a background given by a total devotion of 28 years I dare say that for the healthy development of fundamental physics it would be necessary.Matti Pitkänenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512912323574611883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10614348.post-17471908517157719682008-03-15T07:15:00.000-07:002008-03-15T07:15:00.000-07:00Matti,For the sake of future investigators exiteme...Matti,<BR/><BR/>For the sake of future investigators exitement i have one seemingly disrespectful question: Is there anything in observable universe that TDG does not explain?<BR/><BR/>Toomas SildveeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
