  May 23 2012: Thanks for your answer, Paul.
  It makes a lot of sense to me. I can start to imagine the idea of it.
  Funny thing is, I just came out of my physic class which still explains how atoms are the smallest of all. This new revelation about the String Theory changes the way I think! Once again, thanks :)

  May 23 2012: Wow. Thanks for your answer!
  That actually explains a lot for me, I think I might have just the simplest idea of this very complicated concept.
  I may not understand the whole String Theory, but it gives me a realization that our universe is beyond mind-blowing!
  
  Thanks for the video too, I'll definitely take a look at that after my finals. :)
