I agree that the similarities are fascinating AND that I need an expert to ease the pain (in my head). I only made it as far as DiffyQ's - and that was a long time and many brain cells ago. Does anyone think there could be a relationship or similarity between the Higgs Boson (the anticipated mediator of mass characteristics) of String Theory and the Gravi-Photon (a conduit of gravity force and electromagnetic interaction) of Heim Theory? There's someting about them that keeps bugging me (metaphorically that is).
