What if instead of a 'Big Bang', it was more of a 'Big Handjob'?

(credit that one to George Carlin)

That would be a cosmology in which there was a lot of oscillation prior to a final massive explosion producing the universe we now see?

Ok if electormagnetism is your Point Guard and strong nuclear force is your power forward and weak your small; does that make gravity your center or your shooting guard?

No, gravity would be the head coach. On the court at any given moment it is an extremely weak influence but casually over time and distance it is the strongest force on the team.

Coincidentally, this video interview was posted at Slate today and is a bit on topic.

I'm actually reading Brian Greene's book at the moment. Trying to understand it. The biggest thing for me was how things are either very large or very small depending on the factor at which you look. I have to read that bit again to hopefully gain some understanding, but basically you can turn it on its head by calucalations.

Personally, I think "time" is an illusion, that it all overlaps somehow. Something's circular, concerning the creation of this all. I don't know how it works, but that's the starting idea in my head.
