SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The recent revolution in differential topology related to the discovery of non-standard (?exotic?) smoothness structures on topologically trivial manifolds such as R4 suggests many exciting opportunities for applications of potentially deep importance for the spacetime models of theoretical physics, especially general relativity. This rich panoply of new differentiable structures lies in the previously unexplored region between topology and geometry. Just as physical geometry was thought to be trivial before Einstein, physicists have continued to work under the tacit? but now shown to be inco.
