Two people, each of whom gives me intellectual pleasure, shoot the breeze intelligently (& with openness) about quantum physics. Much appreciated!

Good stuff. "The Elegant Universe" was the first popular physics book I read back in around 2006. Turned me back on to physics after high school had done the opposite back in the 80s. The thing I like best about Greene is his epistemic humility. On these topics (metaphysics, consciousness, free will, ultimate cosmology, god, etc.) there's no assertion less truthful than one that claims enough certainty to have dismissed other possibilities. Such claims are (for now) always wrong, epistemologically , even if ultimately they're right, ontologically. Funny that Greene mention Q from Trek. He's always reminded me of Q somewhat!

Powerful insight on connecting with people emotionally when translating scientific principles is essential to getting at the masses. Greene's father having been in vaudeville gave him that lesson which is why his public speeches are so accessible. Great discussion.

“The Trouble with Physics” by Lee Smolin debunks string theory. String theory is essentially beautiful math. Someday it could be physics, but we are not there yet.

What is the cause of gravity? I believe gravity is caused by relativity, time dilation and mass. Massive objects cause objects closer to them to move through time slower. Objects fall because the top of the object is moving through time faster than the bottom of the object. As an object moves forward in time, the object moves in the direction of the slower side. Imagine walking forward in a straight line, but time on your left side is moving slower. This will cause you to turn left. I believe this is similar to how gravity causes an object to fall. Since the bottom of the object is moving through time slower, the object will move downwards.

(on that about 30:00) One of problems could be definition of god itself. Is god something anthropomorphic, a will ... or is it just a whole and some rule of it. Thus everything - and not a part of everything or a part of a whole. Not a particular... I think that identification of part and a whole can be psyhic illness (written as laws in constitutions as well). And then again: what is a man in this context? Is it a part of a whole - which can be close to whole? Is a State e.g. a manager or is it a whole (does society really manage, is it a part and a whole)? Is a part also a whole, but only very temporary? When not being a part? Or can be something maybe both at the same time? 'As above, so below' - how to understand this? As to put same questions or as to give same answers?

The spacetime structure as we know even according to the electromagnetic impulses or waves exist in a 3 dimensional plane where the magnetism follows the passing of electric current forming a wave length with the amplitude limited by 90 degree angle it forms with the magnetic current. By down dimensioning, one can make the encounter of the two planes of electromagnetic force including here the spectrum of light to vanish from a a superposed wave with a relation of amplitude to frequency that does not fit in the real world interrelation of wavelength and frequency. When we consider gravity as a treadmill running on the opposite orientation of the runner , the counter pendullum of gravity lets it self be known or even felt. When interrelated as nonintuitive manner by pure algebrism, gravity on one side of the equation of momentum being a multiplier and in the other side being a divisor exarcebates the non linear m non dimensional correlation of the 3 dimensional mass , making it possible to be related in a linear o bidimendsional plane when it appears as the reduction of the speed limit of light to the -0.5 exponent or negative root which when related to the imaginary gravity exponent brings about speeds that are not known to our 3 diemnsional reality, thus by hyper-rotating superconductive materials the flatening of space and time electromagnetic impulses brings about a force that is responsible ( on the 3 dimensional world) to gravity. Therefore by hyperrotaing the down flatening of the interrelated electomagnstic 3 diemsnional wave is brought to the linear or bidimensional reality exposing gravity as it is na intermediate conter pendullum to the electromagnetic and electric wave.

On the cosmetics: Wright’s eyes makes him look like an android. For his part, Greene looks tired, slouched and even a bit old. On a more serious note, this intelligent discussion by 2 informed and thoughtful speakers about a variety of cerebral topics helps show that man’s science has revealed at least 2 great philosophical truths: first, how infinitesimally small that man, his knowledge and place is in the vast expanse of the universe and even greater multiverse landscape. And second, even more profound: that true ultimate reality is, and has always been shown to be, far richer, and more complex than we humans can ever imagine.

Well one problem comes to mind... Imagine all of this is true. What are the vibrations? What is a frequency? Wouldn't these frequencies have numerical values? We could then ask why is one string vibrating at X and another at X+1....we're right back where we started...with numerical values that have no apparent objective value.

The other problem with explaining relativity with the ball on a curved plane....Take all our planets in the solar system for example. They claim they all formed from dust. Why are all of the star systems in a plane? Why don't any of them look like the typical electrons flying around a nucleus model. Finally, what would that curved plane model look like with a ball rolling around it, with another ball rolling around it perpendicular....this is where my mind explodes. I can't visualize it.
