How can people even attempt to discover a "theory of everything"?? Albert Einstein tried, Steven Hawking tried and eventually came to the conclusion it cannot be done, this guy Professor Michio Kaku is going for it too. How can someone possibly imagine that it would be possible, within the limits of one life, or even a couple lifespans, to figure something like that out?!?! Dr. Kaku's goal is to "complete Einstein's dream of a 'theory of everything', a single equation that unifies the 4 fundamental forces of the universe". I heard him first on Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell. He was talking about parallel universes, black holes, white holes, and worm holes to alternate dimensions. His proposed theory is that black holes are really worm holes into parallel universes, where if one persay jumped into a black hole, they would travel through it and shoot out of the corresponding white hole on the other side. He suggests that in the future, these wormholes may be used for easier travel to either parallel universes, or very distant parts of the same universe, or even time travel. Kaku goes on to further ponder this "delicious controversy which delights theoretical physicists but boggles the mind of mere mortals". His idea of what he considers possibly the solution to the theory of everything is called the String Theory, which has 'survived every blistering mathematical challenge ever hurled at it'. You can read about this, and many other insidious theories at Dr. Kaku's website.

Something else really fabulous: When I was listening to Art Bell (which is by the way like the most wicked sweet radio show of our time 570 AM 9pm - 2am), one of the callers had her own little theory. She said after thinking a lot about things going on around her, from the tsunami to like 4 movies she's been watching (like Armageddon), she's came to a conclusion. Aliens, referred to as "the beings who made us" are going to return to end the world in destruction because they are unhappy with the way we are running things. She said the world will be wiped out by these beings. Oh wait, thats not all. She then reasoned that at the root of the aliens' disappointment are the policies of George W. Bush. Yes, its true. Aliens are coming as we speak to destroy the world because of Bush. I'm slightly skeptical.
