Link for the boyfriend

Got this off the campus infolist; someone sends out links to teaching resources periodically. Anyway, there's a 3-hr mini-series from PBS on the Elegant Universe--String Theory. The email said it's all online. Have fun!

This is the documentary that got me started on string theory.

Tim, if you want to get further into it. Joseph Polchinski's book "An Introduction to the Bosonic String" is a great place to start.
There is another book called "A First course in String Theory" that is pretty good, but uses a few to many big words for me :) I can't remember the author's name

I also like this web page http://www.superstringtheory.com/

and my inner geek is really showing, so I will shut up now :)
