Hey man, nice work at Spontaneous symmetry breaking, Electroweak force, and Babylonian literature and science. You're adding some of the best content I've seen from a new user. Are you seriously a high school student? I've been majoring in these subjects (although I'll grant that I'm not a brilliant student) and I don't know much that about gauge groups, Lie groups, and some of the other things you're writing on.

The use of words, as opposed to mathematical notation, is the right approach for the M theory simplified article, which I propose to submit to Featured articles, if it is all right with the community. Ancheta Wis 18:46, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC) P.S. I have been a student of physics for decades, even studying with Richard Feynman in the 1970s, so I feel I have some basis for judgement. Keep up the good work.

[edit] M-theory

The "simplified" explanation is a lot better than the obfuscated one at M-theory, and does not contain much less information. I would encourage you to beautify M-theory by copying the simplified one over, and possibly keeping some technobabble at the end (although it too could be improved, as you did with the simplified page.) Thanks. Loisel 04:42, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] i need some help

im a high school studen about to go into my sophomore year. i really know pretty much nothing about physics or anything like that. but i really want to learn about the M theory. i think that it is mindboggling. in a good way though. i have tried to find an internet site that didn't confuse me that could help me understand the M theory better. so i was wondering if you would be so kind as to explain it to me in words that i could understand. thanks. also if you have the time could you explain the eleven-dimensional thing. thanks again.
