Upcoming on July 24

I haven't told you for some while what I've been up so, so this weekend I tell you something that recently annoyed me. A few months ago, I was asked to write an opinion piece for Physics Magazine, run by the American Physical society. After I'd written this and the editor had cleared it, a second editor killed it. On Saturday I tell you what was in the opinion piece.

That's certainly part of the problem, but it doesn't excuse that physicists continue to use methods that evidently do not work.

If I understand correctly, you believe that an excessive faith in mathematical beauty is responsible for the lack of deep progress in physics over the past 50 (?) years. So, my question is, might the post-1970 physics problems simply be more difficult than the prior era's problems?
