Have you read Julian Jaynes The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown
of the Bicameral Mind?
Great book! Even if they are impossible to verify in detail, Jaynes's ideas
are a terrific stimulus to thinking about both the function and the origin
of consciousness (in the 3p sense). By the way, I

It will easily run at 85mph on the freeway with some speed in reserve. It

My only comment is that SUSY is associated with string theory, not MW.
String theory includes QFT as a low energy equivalent w/o SUSY
and QFT does not predict MW. But then I am just another dummie.

Also 10^500 is the number of unique windings thru 500 topo holes each

I also do not understand why SUSY would rule out MW.

Hopefully someone with a better understanding of these things will comment,
but I believe it has to do with what physicists call the hierarchy
problem, here are some links for your perusal:

Thanks! I will perhaps have more to say / ask once I've looked at those.

To a first approximation this appears to have something to do with the
relative weakness of gravity compared to the weak force. This is, I gather,
highly unexpected because it involves some delicate cancellations
(presumably delicate to about 32 decimal places). And I also gather this is
connected
To a second approximation, the afore-mentioned cancellation can be made
very exact by giving each particle a partner which exactly balances its
contribution (or words to that effect). These are the superpartners, and
give a fermion for each known boson and vice versa. Since fermions and
bosons
