Topic of string theory is one that we would like to present to the visitors here. But hesitation is the norm in this matter. It is difficult to convey even the simplest scientific things to the public and the consternation at the prospect of explaining the most intricate things can only be imagined. One impediment, and it is a silly one, is that the moment you present a scientific idea to the public then very soon the echo is heard-if the explanation is any good. Echo per say is not bad but the echo that is dreaded is the following one. People start making there on theories on the basis of what you feed them. On the face of it this is a good thing-a tribute to your science popularization attempts. But that is the only good news there. People after that expect that you shall do work along the lines suggested by them. This pinches. The lay people's ideas are as close to real science as the antipodes.
Complain over-at least for the time being.
So here is an interview with the Nobel Laureate Steven Weinberg, a living legend and a hero, that contains some remarks about string theory. (Thanks again are due to our reliable source of news P&P. Does he, we mean Zaperz, find it all himself or has he got jinns working for him?)
