The Elegant Universe, Now Available Online

Photon Ghoul writes "PBS has made available online all three hours of the NOVA program on unified theory. Formats are QuickTime and RealVideo with each hour broken up into eight chapters each." I watched the whole thing, and while it's clearly for a lay audience (no math required), it was fun and informative. I was pleased to note that dissenting views on whether string theory was science were presented, and even brief discussion of what constitutes science.

    To all the fuckers who didn't understand the parent post: Do a search for "creation science" on Google, or go to http://www.icr.org/ and read their bullshit.

    And then understand that Laconian obviously knew that Creation Science has nothing to do with Science and that his post is both sarcastic and to the point.

    FWIW, I had the chance to metamod the Troll moderation as Unfair.
