Thank you! I'm a proud mama.

Ever see the movie Bagger Vance? This clip reminds me of a serious scene in that movie where Matt Damon send the golf ball into a stand of trees and Will Smith (Bagger Vance) uses the one-with-the-ball psychology to help him out. Good movie. Too bad that technique doesn't work in physics.

It'll be surprising if Einstein is finally proven wrong in any way. Just my 2 cents. Although physicists have come a long way in understanding its complexities, nature is stranger than we could have imagined and what's left to understand is mind blowing.
