The Higgs has been discovered, so this is the last of my Monday/Tuesday weekly blogs.  Blogging at Science 2.0 achieved my primary goal: debunking my GEM unified field proposal.  Part of that work suggested there was "no stinkin' Higgs".  The announcement from the LHC on July 4 of the Higgs discovery showed that technical speculation was in error. Don't believe the 1 in a million of being wrong PR however.  The spin of the particle detected remains to be shown in the data.

I am using the Higgs discovery as an excuse to stop weekly blogging.  It is a huge effort to create content on that time scale, particularly since these are not reports as much as research efforts, pushing my own boundaries of what I have figured out, or not figured out as the case may be.

A summary of my efforts here should be written in about a month or so to close this chapter of my investigative work.

As to the future, that is always open, including blogging at Science 2.0.  I could imagine a blog quarterly, or perhaps once a month, but only if they had received a bit of editorial review first.  I have a web site, so I could pre-publish there, get some feedback, refine, make a backup Mathematica notebook, then go live.  Improving the quality of my efforts is of interest to me.  If you have any specific ideas, do feel free to contact me here or through email.

Or not.  There are many technical speculations I have that require quite a bit of work to try and flush out.  I am making contacts with a small cluster of serious folks and we will have to see if we can make a productive working group.  I can easily imagine spending a few years to put a collection of these research bits together before blogging again.

Thanks for this open forum.
