Well maybe all this talk of relativity will expose the heliocentric theory for the crock it is...

You wanna talk about crocks, let talk about string thoery...

ooooh string theory. hold on ill go get my cat!

nothing compare's to being analyzed by a coke addict...

In terms of string theory multidimensional geometry, using the algebraic geometric approach of Berenstein et al and methods of toric geometry, I've studied some of the non-commutative orbifolds of Calabi¨CYau hypersurfaces in toric varieties with discrete torsion.

First I looked at a new way of getting complex d mirror Calabi¨CYau hypersurfaces H*d¦¤ in toric manifolds M*(d+1)¦¤ with a C*r action and then I analysed the general group of the discrete isometries of H*d¦¤. Then I solved in terms of discrete torsion and toric geometry data of M(d+1)¦¤ , I built a general class of d complex dimensional NC mirror Calabi¨CYau orbifolds where the non-commutativity parameters ¦È¦Ì¦Í and in which the original Calabi¨CYau hypersurfaces are embedded.

Next I worked out a generalization of the NC algebra for generic d-dimensional NC Calabi¨CYau manifolds and give various representations depending on different choices of the Calabi¨CYau toric geometry data. I also studied fractional D-branes at orbifold points.

In terms of Clifford algebra, I extended the result for NC (T2 ¡Á T2 ¡Á T2)/(Z2 ¡Á Z2) to higher dimensional torii orbifolds.

I seem to have a problem getting past 9th dimensional space, and I am thinking that perhaps it has something to do with all Calabi-Yau orbifolds being nonsingular in codimension 2.

Either that or string theory is all crap.

crocks!? Math doesn't lie

I believe that the moon also has an elliptical orbit around the earth.

I think that the elliptical orbit plus the pull from the other planets and the earths path in the universe is causing the moon to move away from the earth.

Hey, what do you expect? A perfectly balanced system?

I don't know.

Either all matter is made out of 'points' of matter (which seems a little strange to me) or strings of energy (which seems less strange).

I vote for the strings of energy.

If you can break matter down past atoms, molecules, quarks, etc, why should it end at a 'point' of matter? What is that 'point' and what is it made of? Shouldn't you be able to break it down even farther?

Energy seems a better way to resolve it to me.

What I don't like is the common way to describe gravity as warping time and space. Yes, it makes for a great visual and helps people understand gravity in the universe but it still seems as a short cut to thinking.

I'm not sure, but if you believe in strings, you lose quarks right? I mean quarks were just something made up to account for the chaos of strings right?
