It's hard enough to absorb what this surfrider is saying when it's dumbed down for readers like me. The maths is impossible!



But you have to admire the brain

Is this the most senseless Seabreeze thread on the planet?

Nothing to get really. Except adrenalin sports junkies cover the full spectrum of brain power. This guys theories are interesting, important and impossible to get my head around.

Guess I posted this to the wrong forum.

So I'll end it. It's Anthony Garrett Lisi. E8 Theory, Maui surfer, etc ..............

you could have said that at the start. Otherwise it's just an obscure thread about an anonymous surfer.

I got no idea how smart this guy is, or indeed how smart you are, but expecting people to know who he was just from a photo was pretty stupid.

I even thought it was meant ironically, like "surfing is for dumb@sses, look at this guy who seems to say something whilst surfing a wave".

"After getting his Ph.D., Lisi left academia and moved to Maui - expressing his dissatisfaction with the state of theoretical physics"
If you can act that bold, you are pretty much the man.

Now that you unleashed the beast, you owe us a summary of Lisi's masterpiece:

Being the intellectual equal of Homer Simpson, I have to say that this is all total B/S, GUT Theory, String theory, M strings, Y strings, gimme a blond in a G-string !!

And, if the speed of light is constant why do we get a "red shift" or a "blue shift" that tells us if something is travelling towards us or away from us ?

If all the scientists are so clever they can tell us how hot the planet will be in 100 years, why can't they predict the wind speed next wednesday ?

And don't even get me started on global warming !!! if Quantum Mechanics REALLY tells us how the universe works, it'd tell us when the next ice age is due, and we could all stop talking sh!t about how we need a price on carbon.

Rant over...

BTW, how F*)(ing windy was W.A. this weekend !!!
First time in 4 years I haven't been able to kite because it's TOO windy !
