Thanks Mike for pointing this out.
Another discovery a few years back that most of you are probably aware
of that changed my way of thinking was the discovery made by Dr James Gates:

There's a good chance we are living in a computer generated world. The
above link is not the best but if anyone is interested, a simple Google
search will bring up much more.

Probably most have seen this, but Einstein's predictions with GRelativity from
1916 have been proven correct. This is undoubtedly as momentous as the
discovery of the Higg's boson.
The LIGO detectors can detect perturbations as small as 1/10000 the width of a
proton with the interferometers. Fortunately two black holes decided to
cooperate at a good time
and produced an unmistakable signature offset by .007sec just the distance at
light speed between the two detectors. The energy radiated was
equivalent to 3 solar masses and the signature is precisely as predicted by
Einstein. Einstein a bit later (1918) derived the quadrupole formula for
gravitational radiation by solving the
linearized field equations. Perhaps someone can use this to help unite
gravity with the other forces.
