I'd say it's potential science.
There's a pretty good debate about whether String Theory can be considered science. On the one hand like you said, the math fits into what can be confirmed. On the other hand, it is not currently falsifiable (which makes it speculation IMO). The LHC due to come online in 2007 may be able to provide some evidence of extra dimensions though and that would really lend some credibility to the idea.
Devi found a mouse. A real mouse. When I finally grabbed her, hoping to make her dump it on the balcony, she dropped it. It ran behind the loveseat. I haven't seen it since. I'm paralyzed with not caring...
Just wait until the bat shows up.
Something without empirical evidence you mean, Gud? Otherwise, I'm with you.
Yep. I went back and corrected. Thanks.
There were a lot of implications of the theories of relativity that could not be tested until recently.
On the other hand, it is not currently falsifiable
Key word there being "currently" -- in many, if not most cases, it's not that such theories are inherently untestable, it's that we don't have the tools yet. (Solution: bigger toys!)
Isn't calling it a theory quotation marks right there?
Otherwise it'd be a law or something else.
I just heard that my niece dyed her hair pink. I can't wait to see pictures!

I thought that was just a theory.
HIMYM: Even though that was my first instinct, upon re-listening I wasn't so sure.
When I first watched it, I thought it was
Amy Sedaris
When I watched it again, and listened carefully, I thought
Megan Mullally.

They stay in the stairwell. This is what I get for noting there hadn't been mice inside for a while, last week.
Umph. Must go fetch the other cat. And do laundry. And lease. And groceries.
