I actually clicked through on that. Having never had physics and not being super great at higher maths, I understood what must be a fairly miniscule fraction of that. But what I did understand was really cool. I think that's one of the underestimated gifts of reading other people's blogs, occasionally you get glimpses of beauty in things that a) you ordinarily never think about and b) which are way beyond your ken. Thanks!
