I'm not familiar with the term "TOE" but I sense that your tone is one of disapproval. My paper is very ambitious of course. It is an attempt to make sense of a lot of different puzzles in our present understanding of physics and to pull everything together and look at it from a different perspective. I would appreciate it if you would read the paper through to the end and consider the ideas. Perhaps some testable predictions might occur to you. I did mention one in the posting: that of a Michelson-Morley interferometer experiment but with one arm pointing vertically. The slowed decay of muons as they fall to earth which is cited as evidence for relativity suggests that one. M.J. Needham
