Good! Now to see if there any any other possible explanations that
do not have the landscape problem...

Hi Richard,
Could you link some sources on this?

Hi guys,
Neither CYM's nor strings physically exist-- instead, they
represent things that exist.
Anything in equation form is itself nonphysical, although
the equations
might describe something physical.
The equations of string theory describe strings. So how
does it follow that strings aren't real. That's like saying
a sentence that describes my house shows that my house isn't
real.
I agree that string theory (or any other theory) is a model
of reality and not reality itself. But, if it's correct, it
refers to reality or at least some part of reality - like,
"My house is green." refers to a part of reality, but "My
house is blue." does not.

When and if string theory makes a prediction that is then
found to have a physical demonstration we might be more
confident that it is useful as a physics theory and not just
an exercise in beautiful advanced mathematics. The LHC is
looking for such evidence...
For example, if I live at 23 Main street, 23 Main Street is
not my house,
it is my address.
