Check out the following article:

Sounds like a very important development. I'd like to find out more about this new theory.
If it checks out experimentally, this will revolutionize our understanding of the universe.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on this...

Read "Flatland" by Edwin Abbott. Here is a link: http://www.geom.umn.edu/~banchoff/Flatland/ It shouldn't take more than 2 hours to read, and it's fascinating, though a bit redundant. The incredible part is that in the 1880 this guy was already discussing what is so recently a big thing. I read this book a few years ago, and liked it, and it makes complete sense. With this stuff on gravity being weak because of multiple dimensions, I am not surprised at all. It is quite likely in fact.
I have often thought that there is a larger dimension, but there is no way to conceptualize it. Read the book. It makes perfect sense.
