      Hey India, nice to hear from you,

      Wow good question … there are many things I wish I knew the answer to, In my work I’d really like to know how my material evolves.. eg, it grows after its been made and we don’t know how. … In the Grand scale of physics, I’d love to know weather the Higgs Boson exists, If you don’t know what that is, it is the particle they are looking for at cern and it will explain a lot of things we don’t understand, such as how gravity works.

      And yes Coldplay rock, I saw them last year and I’m off to them this year when they do their tour, I can’t wait to sing along with them to Viva la Vida. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgZkm1xWPE

      I don’t want to jump in on this one, but those particle physics questions are really BIG! And really awesome. (The stuff I do is much more about understanding people and society and things like that)
