For more than a year almost all relatively clever hypnotists in
Einstein criminal cult have been silent about the problems of
theoretical physics and busy leaving sinking ships. John Baez is the
only one who confessed in public:

John Baez: "On the one hand we have the Standard Model, which tries to
explain all the forces except gravity, and takes quantum mechanics
into account. On the other hand we have General Relativity, which
tries to explain gravity, and does not take quantum mechanics into
account. Both theories seem to be more or less on the right track —
but until we somehow fit them together, or completely discard one or
both, our picture of the world will be deeply schizophrenic.....I
realized I didn't have enough confidence in either theory to engage in
these heated debates. I also realized that there were other questions
to work on: questions where I could actually tell when I was on the
right track, questions where researchers cooperate more and fight
less. So, I eventually decided to quit working on quantum gravity."

Yet it seems hypnotists break the silence at their meetings and from
time to time information about the magnitude of the crisis gets
available:

"Most remarkable about the talk is that it is a stinging critizism of
contemporary theoretical physics without actually ever mentioning it.
Rovelli called Baez on that asking wether what he had just presented
didn't imply that the theoretical physics of the last 25 years was
"junk". To which John baez replied after some hesitation "You said
it"."
