Physicists should watch pt. 2 FOR SURE. Also, I haven't finished converting the audio file of the actual conference. That'll be up in a few days.

paradirob  2008-01-16 17:26:24 Black holes would be the conduit through which we could trace our cosmic heritage. In this way, we provide a possible, albeit speculative, antinomy to the anthropic argument. __________________________________________________
paradirob  2008-01-16 17:23:07 I believe he said that since the parameters have to be close enough to the ones that would be required to make possible the development of stars in any particular universe, it stands to reason that since black holes are the products of collapsed and dying stars, we should expect that the universe we inhabit must be the descendant of a long line of universes that have hovered around the specifics of those parameters. __________________________________________________
