magician,

Thanks for the brief recap of scientific history.

You're somewhat wrong, though, in assuming what the Next Big Theory will be like.

General relativity is an extension of newtonian mechanics -- a superset. Similarly, we expect the Next Big Theory to be an extension, or superset, of quantum mechanics. It would be rather shocking for the Next Big Theory to instead be a regression, and remove the uncertainty relations.

You would do well to read back through all of my posts on this thread and the "Under God" thread.

According to George Carlin they used to go into Limbo. Since the Catholic Church cancelled Limbo he's not sure where they went but he hopes that they got promoted to Heaven, rather than simply being cut loose in space.
