Brian, I started to read the text and found the 1st sentence: *"In modern cosmology, a **multiverse is defined to be a collection of possible physical universes"*
that pissed me off: 'possible' in our today's sense includes many 'impossibilities' in the sense of a mindset of 1000 years ago and I assume does NOT include lots of 'possibles' in the scientific(?) mindset 1000 years hence. I find the position a 'present-day restricted' reductionist approach adjusted into our 2009(or earlier?) cognitive inventory of physics. In rigorous science I could not do better, but is it a position you would really deem a "a very interesting read"?
