"A Final Hope: Over the next decade new tools will come on line that will allow experiments at much higher energy in accelerators. New non-accelerator experiments will be done on the ground, under the ground and in space. One can hope for a collection of new clues to a better understand that are less subtle than those we have so far that do not fit the standard model. After all, the Hebrews after the escape from Egypt wandered in the desert for 40 year before finding the Promised Land. It is only a bit more than 30 since the solidification of the Standard Model."
