Experimentalist Ron Walsworth of
Harvard-Smithsonian comments that the nice thing about Kostelecky's
work is that he proposes detailed experiments to test his theories;
and that the results of such experiments, no matter how they turn
out, promise to deepen our understanding of physics.
Gotta luv theorists who propose TESTABLE hypothethies. There's lots of so-called 'science' these days that postulates untestable theories. Fun speculation, but similar to reading Tolkein fantasy novels. Much of string theory comes to mind.
