This is fascinating...I think.

Alas, I was but a poor history major.

A winning combo.

String theory is fascinating.

I first saw articles on it a couple of years ago now almost every monthly I pick up has something on it.

BTW I find intelligent women extremely sexy.

How does this square with Hypersphere Packing?

I thought I'd read about a 24 dimension theory some time back?

Ah, Lisa. With her branes and my looks, what a team we could be!

She was at Princeton, and there's no mention of Witten in the article? (Not that it is required but...)

Brilliant and attractive. A winning combo.

But in a pinch, brilliant will do.

I caught a bit of her on CSPAN - she was giving a talk in NYC - the contrast between her looks and the freakshow that was her audience was amazing. The audience looked like people had all just walked out a Larsen Far Side cartoon!

Some of the papers Lisa Randall has written (alone and with others):

Search results for "Lisa Randall" at arXiv.org

Reading the abstracts is fun...
