With his acceptance for part of the Nobel Prize in Physics, Wilzcek has resuscitated the ether, rechristening it the grid.
Basically, the grid is the space time continuum, out of which particles come, or more accurately, their quarks, which behave like particles themselves at very small (subnuclear) distances.
It's about time. The dual nature of particles can now be studied in the light of this reparidigm.
