Escaping Gravity

When the God character in "Unknown Caller" starts texting advice to the addict in the motel room, 'escape yourself and gravity' shows up.

U2 have snuck in good physics before (must be the Edge!),
but the escaping of gravity may well be key to the elusive"still haven't found what they're looking for" Grand Unifying Theory.



See Einstein, who concluded that
gravity was a property of space/time..
See this:

See The New York Times piece , "On Gravity, Oreos and a Theory of Everything"

In fact, just google up "ecape gravity," it's quite awhile before U2 lyrics show up.

There are in fact ways to escape gravity on earth:
Escape from gravity
Or perhaps the secret is not escaping gravity, but letting gravity escape.
Gravity itself can escape branes and penetrate other dimensions..
Of course, it came escape a black hole.

Roger Penrose:
"I have indeed suggested that consciousness depends on the missing gravitational theory"(p.1033, The Road to Reality: A Comprehensive Guide to the Phsysical Universe"
