Extra dimensions . . . at the recent American
Association for the Advancement of Science annual meeting in
Denver . . . "It doesn't happen often that you get a confluence of
ideas and experiments that come together and it's something that
obviously would change your whole way of looking at the
universe," said one Joseph Lykken, Professor in Physics at the
University of Chicago.

"That standard model itself may be our biggest
hint that there's this world of extra dimensions," he said.
    . . .  New experiments at Fermi National Accelerator 
Laboratory are producing data that just don't fit the standard
model, said Maria Spiropulu an Enrico Fermi Fellow at the 
University of Chicago. "We have things in the data that leave
our mouths hanging," she said . . . Whether extra dimensions or
some other phenomenon emerges to clarify these murky data, 
scientists seem certain that they stand only a few years away
from a scientific revolution.
