Comments given after John Ellis´ lecture at Wonderful World festival on Theory about everything

Yesterday evening I took part as a commentator in the event «Teorien om alt – fysikkens hellige gral?» (The theory about everything - the holy grail of physics?), following John Ellis´ lecture on the subject. The event was part of the Wonderful World festival, a science and philosophy festival being held in Stavanger, Norway, May 28-31st (third year), and was well attended, with about 150 people in the room. UIS colleague Anders Tranberg also served as commentator, while UIS colleague Eero Aleksi Kurkela chaired the event.
