Physics has a theory called string theory to explain the nature of time and space which can be read about on wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory.
Now, I don't possess the scientific chops to argue the physicists string theory, I have my own theory which unfortunately carries the same name. Mine is a behavioral, or psychological string theory which can be summarized by the phrase, "Oh, look! String." What I mean by that is that we, as Americans, can be easily distracted.
In the midst of the worst economy since the Great Depression, what are we focused on? I'll give you a hint, it's not the economy. The President wants o impose Islamic law. Some guy wants to build a Mosque near Ground Zero. Sarah Palin is defending a talk radio host using the n-word. Does any of this really matter? This is string and we are cats. As a dog person, that is not easy for me to say.
