The key to understanding the Big Bang and everything that followed may

It came out of nowhere like an express train in the night. Only it
wasn't an express train - it was an entire universe, hurtling towards
our own from a higher dimension. Before the collision, our universe
was an empty, aching void. Afterwards it ignited, exploding outwards
in an unstoppable firestorm of light and matter.
Is this a description of the Big Bang? Is everything we see, out to
the very farthest reaches probed by our telescopes, merely the
wreckage of a titanic collision between universes? A group of
physicists from Britain and America think it is. They call the
colliding-universe scenario the "ekpyrotic universe", from the Greek
for "born out of fire". They say the cosmic smash that triggered the
Big Bang may not have been the first. "Before the Big Bang, there was
another Big Bang and, before that, another, stretching way back into
the mist of time," says Neil Turok from the University of Cambridge.

As usual, Glen makes vaguely disparaging remarks, with no substance.
Do you have an alternative cosmological theory which you prefer? Or
are you just saying that you hate folks who know more than you or are
willing to work harder than you?
You were always the brat who sat in the back of the class, making
passive aggressive comments, snickering, but rarely quite crossing
over the line and getting sent to the principal's office. Never did
well in school, though - the teachers didn't like you much, and
neither did the other students.
If it's just attention that you want, there are more rewarding ways to
go about it as an adult.

How do you know how hard I work, or how hard I am willing to work? Your
head is swelled up the size of a watermelon, twit.
Part of why I post is entertainment, which appears to be partly why you
post as well, if the below paragraph of psychic predictions is any
indication.

Adults that think they can figure people out like you just did usually
end up needing medication. Seriously.

Yes, it was alone and aching for company. Dumbass, don't take
everything literally.

You have a (not so) nice habit of picking the one part of figurative
exposition in an article and attack it, while ignoring all of the
facts and the many, many links to more resources.
