Your Politics: Liberal/Conservative/Centrist?

I found the article I was thinking of. You're right! It said nothing about gravity.

It was called, "Zillions of Universes..." and there was a subtitle, but I can't remember it. It was written by Overbye in the October 28, 2003 issue of the New York Times newspaper, and it was in section F. If you have access to Lexis Nexis Academic, it is available through that database.

Basically, it said that scientists were looking for a way to explain why the Universe seems fine tuned to support life. They called this the anthropic principle. They speculated that this Universe was one among zillions with a random cosmological constant that makes life sustainable here.

I'm going to go look at the hardcopy edition because it seems like this story has been edited.

God bless!
