With so many trained mathematical / theoretical physicists around even the slightest experimental hint from nature would bring about a scientific revolution and new paradigms - like in real time. The lack of news from the "deep" frontiers of fundamental physics might end tomorrow or might last a millenium. Its impossible to tell. The pace of our increasing understanding of universe is not particularly predictable beyond these periods that benefit from simple scaling rules (ever bigger detectors etc.)
