I just today conceptually understood why quantum gravity is a perplexity. I knew the problem existed, but with a very limited mathematical background, did not really get it. I rely on conceptual understanding to comprehend the world around me and the problems of physics. Today the layman understanding clicked. As of right now, quantum gravity is my answer to my Ask.

I love when something clicks in the brain. Hope yours does the same! Understanding is sensational.

Oh, I have several of them I am interested in. The time problem. Neutrino mass. Generations of matter. (My personal pet theory is that 3 generations of matter will somehow tie in to three physical dimensions, but I have no basis for expecting that.)
