Science! Chickens! Dinosaurs!

Really though, is it a good idea to turn chickens into dinosaurs? Ever? I don't see that there are many - or indeed any - benefits to having giant prehistoric monsters roaming the streets. Didn't this guy see Jurassic Park? The whole castration of Mother Nature inevitably leading to the downfall of Mankind, and also the evisceration of Mankind?

Maybe we can just bring back megalodons?


 
Can you turn chickens into sharks? I know megalodons wouldn't have many benefits for mankind either, but at least then we could also breed a giant octopus and make them fight each other.

Antimatters of Importance

I'm a bit worried about superstring theory. If physicists haven't yet proved superstrings exist, why are they factoring it into so many of their attempts to find a unified Theory of Everything? What if they find a Theory of Everything that hinges on superstring theory existing, then discover superstrings don't exist? Would the universe fall apart? Would antimatter make a sudden resurgance and collide with matter and render us all to atomic dust?

I'm pretty okay with string theory. Working at a maths institute for over a year has assured me that string theory probably works fine. Superstring theory bothers me know. It depends on there being, like, six other dimensions besides the ones we already know about, and we can't prove they exist. And if they do exist, they're so tightly curled in on each other, we can't find them anyway. I have therefore concluded that superstring theory is not good, and physicists should find an alternative means of explaning the universe.
