Interesting concept, the solution being a "math oddity" almost in that it is a valid solution but the practicality of the solution may not be there in real life.

Interesting to see that they move it back to the original string theory but as they mention doesn't apply to Supersymmetry.

I just reread A Brief History of Time and going through The Universe in a Nutshell.

Cool stuff and goes way over my head quickly.
