DO WE LIVE IN A "DESIGNER UNIVERSE"? This question has been batted around since the 1960s, when cosmologists began to notice that the laws of nature seemed fine-tuned for conscious life to emerge. If the fundamental constants of physics—the strength of gravity, the ratio of the mass of the proton to that of the neutron, the energy density of empty space, and so on—had differed by a hair from their actual values, the universe would have been a lifeless dud: no stars, no stable elements, no evolution. It is as if a cosmic designer had twiddled a bunch of control knobs until they were at precisely the right settings to ensure that beings like us would eventually shimmer onto the scene. The Cosmic Designer Hypothesis is one way of explaining the improbable fine-tuning of nature's laws. And compared with the Big Fluke Hypothesis (which is really no explanation at all), it may not look so bad. But those who find its deistic flavor unpalatable have suggested a third option: the Many Universes Hypothesis... linguafranca.com

Jill, The only point Mr. Gore will concede is that he is the winner of the popular vote in this country. Don't kid yourself. Al Gore is out to win this thing at ANY cost because, quite frankly, he won't be on the Presidential ticket in 2004. And he knows it. Conceding for the sake of the country would imply sacrificing for the greater good of the people: a quality which I do not believe Mr. Gore possess. Time will bear me to be correct. Regards,
