Every time some scientific/mathematical theory gets some popular press, bs artists write papers incorporating the relevant buzzwords. In the 70's it was catastrophe theory, then we got chaos theory and fractals, and now I suppose we get string theory. | |

See, however, arxiv.org/abs/1307.0190 and arxiv.org/abs/1307.6727 Maybe such attempts will produce some interesting insights. At least, with regard to them, we can follow an advice "keep an open mind, but not so open your brains fall out" (the origin of this popular maxim is not quite clear: skeptic.com/insight/… ). | |
