Oh yes, though as much as I've read on't, I would never claim to actually be able to understand it all - I kind of rely on the vague image drawn by years of moderate drug consumption, reading and mental doodling :)
Personally, I love Iain M. Banks' description of branes - 'skeins'. I used to have nigh-on orgasms when he'd write of "massive licks of energy ripping through the surface skein.." - at times like that, I genuinely wanted to be trade in mobility and my good looks for Steven Hawking's chair and brain.
The contemporary mode of reality is so fucking dull when you have a sci-fi-inclined imagination..
