I remember that he was a frequent poster here, what reason he had to stop posting here?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Does anyone know why Chris Hillman stop posting here?

The discussion centers on the absence of a frequent poster from the forum, speculating on the reasons for their departure, which is believed to be a focus on original research. The conversation touches on notable figures in the field, such as John Baez and Rudolf Gambini, with references to their contributions and works related to Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG). There is a mention of a potential integration of Loop Quantum Gravity with SuperString Theories, although this is viewed as a challenging endeavor. Additionally, the topic of Quantum Chaos and SuperSymmetric Quantum Cosmology is introduced, with one participant expressing interest in writing a thesis on Quantum Chaotic Field Theory. The discussion maintains a light-hearted tone, with playful references and camaraderie among participants.

Also John Baez sometimes posted here, you can see the posts in BSM.
I have some recollection that in the 1990's I read some paper by Zimmerman (can't recall if its about Canonical Loop Quantum Gravity).
A few years ago Rudolf Gambini sent me a draft of his intro book for UG students on LQG while I asked him for the draft since at my school no one works in LQG.
I believe there's no time like the present to read his draft.
Eventually some sort of Marriage between Loop Quantum Gravity and SuperString Theories is possible, but it would be quite aggressive feat.
Loopy-Stringy same blah blah blah...
And we should add to the fun Quantum Chaos, SuperSymmmetric Quantum Cosmology.
I thought of writing a thesis on Quantum Chaotic Field Theory.
Cheers Mates and Girls!

IIRC, he realized he needed to devote far more time to publishable original research. Although I was disappointed that he would not be around much anymore, I understood completely.MathematicalPhysicist said:

By the way strangerep did you read in physicsoverflow of my idea of particles that are neither right nor left (or should I say wrong)... What a joke I took from danger mouse...
