I started watching it, but about 10 mins in, he dishonestly cut together an interview from Brian Greene to make it sound like Brian was saying the same thing Gavin was. It turns into just non-sensical word salad strung together from there on in.

Thanks for throwing in your $.02, I will take it that you had a hard time following it, and 10 minutes into it they quoted Brian Greene and your attention span took a nose dive into your make believe la la land of: "I know every thing there is to know about Physics so I ain't watching any more of the woo woo, and besides my head hurts from thinking too much."

You can be a jackass and ignorantly call people stupid if you want, but it doesn't make the video any less full of woo and BS.

Thanks for your permission I was starting to feel bad about it but you make me feel better by giving me your permission. You did say 'if you want' and to me that's the same thing as saying:'go right ahead you won't get any flack from me' in effect consent or permission.
but it doesn't make the video any less full of woo and BS.
No of course it don't: me being given permission to be a jackass of sorts and calling people stupid has nothing even remotely in common with the video being full of woo and BS or not in your highly exalted Opinion of yourself or judgements. So I fail to see your logic here and how you can even make this sort of connection. Not only do you get and 'F' for leaps in logic, you also have a fail on the apples and oranges comparison.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apples_and_oranges
A comparison of apples and oranges occurs when two items or groups of items are compared that cannot be practically compared.
The idiom, comparing apples and oranges, refers to the apparent differences between items which are popularly thought to be incomparable or incommensurable, such as apples and oranges. The idiom may also be used to indicate that a false analogy has been made between two items, such as where an apple is faulted for not being a good orange.

Frankie - Do you ever post your thoughts on why you find these topics worthy of attention? What convinces you personally that they have validity?
I only ever see OP that consist of a link to a video with no comment.
If you would explain the main point of the video in your own words it might get some attention.

It's not just my opinion, Frankie. Some basic research would serve you well.

Well Cofty I watched the video I thought it was good I'm not saying I know the mathematics and ideas expressed, the video has given me some ideas about the nature of things and the universe as a kind of artifact that need further understanding of time beyound that of einstien with the posibilities of other time dimentions that give a novice like myself and interesting picture reality and space. I can't even begin to critique this stuff based on my lack of knowledge, but that doesn't stop some "Knowitalls" pronoucing woo on something they have no idea what is being said in the video except their own little narrow idea of what is being taught in physics. Which BTW I've been given permission to pronouce or denouce as or to put it more sucintly: "Ignorantly call people stupid if I want" by one of JWN's very own resident genius who has also granted himself the very same priviledge in all fairness.

the posibilities of other time dimentions
What does that phrase mean?
