No.  You don't demonstrate physics models, you makes some predictions and 
if they
are turn out to be true the you give some credence to the theory.  String 
theory has
the same problem as Bruno's theory, it apparently predicts far too much.



Too much according to which standard?  In my opinion, present "monouniverse" theories 
predict far too little in my as we are founded by mysteries like the cosmological 
constant having to be tuned to 120 decimal places.


Yes, such "everything" theories provide cheap explanation, but no prediction.  In fact the 
holographic principle indicates the CC need not be "fine tuned" at all.

Re: Everett and Einstein

2013-06-30 Thread Evgenii Rudnyi 

On 29.06.2013 22:14 smi...@zonnet.nl said the following:

Well, there is no point in living if you don't want to live. And if
you don't live from some time onward, you still live at earlier
times. In fact, you are alive today, because you are going to die in
the future (otherwise the probability of being alive today would be
vanishingly small).

In the block time picture, today, tomorrow, and yesterday have the
same status. So, if you don't exist tomorrow, you still exist today
and yesterday.

“When his lifelong friend Besso died, Einstein wrote a letter to Besso’s 
family, saying that although Besso had preceded him in death, it was of 
no consequence,”for men who have knowledge of physics know that the 
separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion, 
although a convincing one.“
