Item 122 proposes and derives major consequences of a universality class motivated by analogy and mathematical esthetics, that subsequently proved to provide, in essence, the effective theory of topological insulators. . This [asymptotic freedom] is a phenomenon whereby the building blocks which make up the nucleus of an atom 'quarks' behave as free particles when they are close together, but become more strongly attracted to each other as the distance between them increases. 296. 205.

In Item 58 we showed how supersym- metric models based on the group SO(10) (or, of course, a larger group) contain a very natural mechanism for lifting the troublesome Higgs color triplet to very high mass, leaving the doublet behind. Item 89 arose out of discussions of the annihilation of magnetic monoples and antimonopoles in the early Universe, but quickly took on a different flavor. This might qualitatively explain the small nuclear (compared to QCD) mass scale; it requires chiral symmetry restoration which could explain the long-standing observation $g_A \rightarrow 1$ in nuclear matter.

One aspect of this, which requires less radical departures than the full program, is a connection between the meaning of the cosmolog- ical term (initial value versus microscopically determinate) and the question whether one should require invariance under volume-changing transformations.
