It was hoped that string theory was going to be able to unify a lot of the theoretical particles, basically by describing a single state of matter, via which all others could be explained.
However there are now several versions of string theory, so go figure...
Having said that, I am looking forward to seeing if CERN can get anywhere in advancing our knowledge, with the LHC.
