What's to Like About String Theory?

Phil Gibbs has four of his reasons in a guest post at Lumo's place. I can't share his enthusiasm for the Multiverse, but the other reasons have some force.

He points out that failure to find clear signatures of ST in currently accessible energy domains would hardly be a refutation.

It's possible that string theory today could be like atomic theory in the time of Democritus - true but millenia away from testability.
