My new theory!!!

I guess you've all heard of string theory, right? Well, this new telecommunications technology involves string theory. What you do is grab the ends of "strings" at either end of the Earth for example, and attach polystyrene cups to each end! Amazing! We could all talk to each other free of charge, since there would be no need for telephone exchanges!!!

For my other great world-changing theories, look here:

PS: I'm not Abhi, I'm just a very naughty boy. :p

Would the sound wave actually travel that far through the string? I thought over distance a wave would fade??

Hulac, I'm sorry. I intended this thread and the other two merely as jokes. Please don't take it at all seriously.

I see.

String theory is mere wishful thinking. By the way, according to ST, matter is made of loops of string, you would have to unravle them first to communicate through them.

:( it was a joke... :confused:
