Hi Gordon, my friend,

You'll have to forgive me.  I have never had a physics class, so when
people say "Plank" and "M-theory", I don't know what they're talking
about.  I majored in math in college.  There are classes now that I
wish I had had, and physics and philosophy are just two of them.  I can
see now I'll have to make a visit to Wikipedia to see if I can somehow
comprehend this Plank notion of yours.

I wasted all my time in college with computer and math classes.  It's
funny how we regret the things we missed out on.  Although I don't
regret the math.
