"strings, branes, & LQG" forum should be "Quantum gravity and theories of everyth
My feeling is that the "strings, branes and LQG" forum should be renamed Quantum gravity and theories of everything for three reasons:
1) Strings and LQG aren't the only approaches to the quantum gravity problem. 2) Unlike other approaches, strings is a theory of everything. 3) This title inaccurately suggests that the status of LQG in the physics community is on a par with strings when in fact - as with all the other quantum gravity programs - only a tiny number of papers are written about it by a tiny group of people who are pretty much ignored by everyone else. |
