Very Interesting Physics News

[OFFMason]

Physicists at Cornel-Putnam University (CPU) confirmed yesterday the Holy Grail of Physics, the Grand Unified Theory, is contained in the Half-Life 2 source code. For decades Einstein attempted to weave together all aspects of physics into one grand unified theory, and although he failed many physicists have continued his work, seemingly in vain.

LOL!
Combining the weak force, strong force, electromagnetism and gravity is the problem.
First 3 can be explained with quantum physics, and gravity with general relativity.
HL2 seems to solve this problem via the Havok 2 engine lmao

Any news item with HL2 in the title, with a date like that on it is old news.
