Alan deliberately uses the term "Multiverse" to refer to the string landscape. Note this usage contravenes the usage of Multiverse by everybody else here, which normally is as David Deutsch originally intended by the term, the multiple universes of the MWI, or sometimes even more generally as any of the Tegmarkian ensembles. Alan, please bear that in mind, and qualify your statement with string landscape or similar to indicate you are using the term differently to everybody else on this list, and prevent these sorts of stupid confusions.
