Читаю про string theory (теорию струн). Чего не сделаешь ради любимого персонажа)))

Это мне особенно понравилось:
NOVA: Do you think there are limits to how much we can know about the universe?
Greene: I don't know. I'd like to think that there aren't, but I suspect that's a little optimistic. An analogy that's used in the NOVA program that I'm quite fond of is: We are certainly aware of intelligent beings on this planet whose capacity to understand the deep laws of the universe is limited. No matter how hard you try to teach your cat general relativity, you're going to fail. There we have an example of an intelligent living being that will never know this kind of truth about the way the world is put together. Why in the world should we be any different? We can certainly go further than cats, but why should it be that our brains are somehow so suited to the universe that our brains will be able to understand the deepest workings?

В общем, всё это жутко интересно, но я чувствую себя кошкой, которую учат теории относительности)). Преклоняюсь перед могуществом человеческого разума.
