From The Economist print edition

String theory has dominated theoretical physics for the past 20 years

i claim the Macyver theory.

some duct tape some bubble gum and some paper clips.

If you've never seen it, Nova's "The Elegant Universe" is an excellent and fascinating series on string theory. You can stream it from here
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/program.html

That was a great program, niu. And, I might add, they address the point of string theory not being falsifiable.

As for the other points, I'm not even sure what this article is arguing. Those familiar with string theory have known much of it for quite some time.
