How to make love to a boson, Mark Morford
I'm a day late but better late than never, right!

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, itwill instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

I am delighted to report, we think we might know.
I am thrilled to announce, we think we are getting closer to a fundamental understanding of something we cannot, shall not, will not ever really get all that close to understanding, by nature of the fact that if you could get all that close to it, it wouldn’t be the thing you think it is in the first place. Isn’t life grand?
Does that ever stop us? That never really stops us.
We are, after all, a species that loves to know. Or rather, we love to think we know, love to believe we have a fairly solid grip on this or that universal splat of fact, truism, irrefutable meaning. After all, how can we possibly make our way through this life riot without at least pretending we have a clue what’s going on?
