I am Jack Sarfatti a notorious very controversial physicist with non-politically correct ideas (PhD, MS University of California, BA Cornell) working on cosmology, foundations of physics, and fringe subjects like consciousness, UFOs and the paranormal for which I have been viciously attacked by many on the web with varied sometimes hidden agendas and false allegations wrapped in half-truths - par for the course. I do consult when needed as a kind of expert witness for the USG Intelligence Community on these fringe physics questions. It should be noted that I am a staunch defender of Einstein's classical general theory of relativity in its domain of empirical validity. I spent several months in 1970-71 with the also notorious and very controversial David Bohm (departed) at Birkbeck College and I support his ontological interpretation of quantum theory that is surprisingly not understood by many mainstream "quantum mechanics".
Current Physics Research
Lee Smolin's Ch 14 in "The Trouble With Physics" has important clues. 2D + 1 quantum gravity allegedly exists as a viable theory. 2D is special because: 1. the world hologram, in my version, posits a future retro-causal de Sitter horizon http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Image:FuturedeSitterhorizon.jpeg of scale L using advanced Wheeler-Feynman signals back to the moment of past-inflation in a Novikovian globally self-consistent loop of self-creation. This is not the same as the Gott-Li model. That is, 2D + 1 spacetime is what is fundamental and 3D+1 spacetime is a "volume without volume" holographic image in which the Jack Ng equation becomes &L ~ (Lp^2L)^1/3 ~ N^1/6Lp ~ scale of quantum gravity foam lattice size of 4D world crystal whose equilibrium nodes are the geometrodynamic field point "monopoles" (from 2 effective Goldstone phases contracted from the 8) with curvature from disclination defects and torsion from dislocation defects (Hagen Kleinert).

2. Frank Wilczek and others show that anyons with fractional charges and angular momenta and fractional quantum statistics neither fermion nor boson only happen in 2D+1 spacetime. Quarks with charges 1/3 & 2/3 come to mind. This is essential for the fractional quantum Hall effect needed for ultra-high Tc superconductivity with topological order parameters.
