The Fabric of the Cosmos

Wow!  This work by Brian Greene is fascinating, and, despite being written in easy to understand lay terms, it was still over my head.  Physics and I never got along well. I kept asking 'Why?' and was consistently told 'It just is...accept it as fact,' which stuck in my craw.

So, now I find myself again asking why.  Why are there so many dimensions? What caused the big bang? When will we have the ability to see the future? Why are we here/now?

New Adventure

Having abandoned my previous blog cyberdabbler.blogspot.com for lack of material (It was, after all, work-related and I no longer work there, don't you see?), this will serve as the venue for infrequent posts.
