string theory is more like philosophy than science, but the level of mathmatics required to understand it is beyond most people (including me ).

If experiments like the one described and the new one being built by CERN, the Large Hadron Collider, which are both looking for the theoretical 'Higgs bosun', yield results leading to a better understanding of the nature of sub atomic matter, we could really start to get near the 'unified' theory.
