I think the main questions we try to answer with a theory of everything is about gravity. How does gravity work at quantum level? Is it possible to convert other fundamental forces into gravity?

The world is full of people who can think for themselves, but I’m afraid most of them has became jaded and tired of educating others.

It would have been great. Right now we're at a somewhat awkward situation where we are trying to make a document delivery network act as an application platform, and things are a bit more complicated than they ought to be. If Flash and

Even-though I have an Spotify subscription, I buy music from Bandcamp to support lesser known bands and artists, such as The Midnight and FM-84.
