Not Even Wrong, ten
years later: a view from mathematics on prospects for fundamental
physics without experiment.

I'll
discuss some of the issues raised by the book "Not Even Wrong", from
a perspective of ten years later. Given the worrisome
possibility that physics at much shorter distance scales will turn out to be
experimentally inaccessible, I'll consider possibilities for whether and how
the field of mathematics might provide a potentially helpful alternative point
of view.
