As you know, my training is in the social sciences, liberal arts. As such, I am more likely to see the adventure and creativity in your theoretical studies than someone might who is trained in the 'hard' sciences.
One of the most charming aspects of your posts (yes, charming!) is the excitement you convey for your research. This is contagious--essential in a good teacher. You are that. A theoretical physicist who opens the universe, just a little at a time, for the rest of us.
Have a great holiday break with your family.
Thanks for this feedback. I have very little of comments of this kind, and they really please me! ;)
Have a happy holiday time as well!
