The end of theoretical physics. It appears with the impending discovery
of the Higgs boson that we may be very close to a complete TOE. It seems
quite ironic that our greatest attempt at simplification has resulted in the
most complex theory even invented.

The conceptual problems of quantum measurement, and unifying gravity with
quantum field theory, are very far from solved...
