i don't agree with the last line of this, "The claim is a reversal for Hawking, who claimed in 1980 that there would be a unified theory by the turn of the century." He did NOT claim that physicists would discover a theory of everything, he simply asked what the chances were that physicists would find a complete unified theory of everything by the end of the century. It appears that there is a difference! Once again someone decided to skim read an article, or went off what they thought they remembered. way to go slashdot! rabble rabble rabble.
