At least one of the extra dimensions may not be small, may be the size of neurons in the brain, or larger.

Michio Kaku had a book on this ("Hyperspace") in the mid-1990s.

The Jatravartid People of Viltvodle Six, (a group of six armed beings distinguished in having invented the areosol deodorant before inventing the wheel) firmly believe that the entire universe was sneezed out of the nose of a being called "The Great Green Arkleseizure" and live in perpetual fear of the time they call "The Coming Of The Great White Handkerchief."

It might be huge. Especially if everything is connected through these tiny dimensions. See? We found a use for tensors and quaternions after all.

Thank you so much for this post, RightWhale!

But inflationary cosmology tells scientists nothing about the initial conditions of the universe. This is where extra dimensions come in, even though they might be microscopically small.

Bumping for discussion...

Personally, I can't wait until we discover some *lower* dimensions so I can have a go at Brockian Ultra Cricket.

Rod Serling voice:

Beyond this door lies another dimension. It's a dimension of sight. It's a dimension of sound. [Crash!] It's a dimension of mind.

Alright, I don't know what the heck dimension it is!

Multi-dimensional ping.

[This ping list is for the evolution -- not creationism -- side of evolution threads, and sometimes for other science topics. To be added (or dropped), let me know via freepmail.]
