|content=@MasterMuskkk @bgreene @Columbia @TOEwithCurt @IAI_TV Brian is one of our best public speakers as well. I’ve seen him improvise on his feet in tough situations and I am blown away by how he manages to be accurate, accessible and funny in real time scientific matters. A lightning-fast mind working simultaneously on multiple levels.

|content=The IAI asked me to clarify some arguments in an interchange over theoretical physics I had earlier with String Theorist @bgreene of @Columbia, just as Brian was asked about the same discussion on @TOEwithCurt.
 
The @IAI_TV write up is here. Check it out!

|content=I think what was new to @IAI_TV was someone who was not against string theory as a framework, but adamant that String culture and Quantum Gravity had been catastrophically enervating for 40-70 years.
 
A part of the original interchange was excerpted here:

|content=At 1:32:50, Curt Jaimangul asks Brian Greene about the same issue.
 
I respect Brian a great deal and always found him collegial. I’d be happy to have the state and future of Quantum Gravity discussed at length in open forum if people were interested.
