Easier Than Expected Theories

Subcommittee of the Future Committee

This subcommittee is dedicated to exploring the most absurdly obvious ideas in the universe.

Chairperson: Dr. Emily P. Snodgrass (Expert in the Obvious)

The committee has been studying the phenomenon of "Inflato" – the tendency for things to get bigger and more complex than they need to be.

Our current research paper, "Inflato: A Threat to the Fabric of Space-Time Itself", is now available online.

We are also exploring "Simplato" – the art of taking things down to their most basic, most elegant form.

Our upcoming subpage, "Simplato: The Art of Reducing Complexity", will feature our findings on this topic.

Meet the members of the subcommittee.
