A multi-universe theory, similar to Murphy's law, that essentially states anything that can be altered by freak scientific accidents/discoveries will indeed be changed forever.
It's a scalar value that actually increases and decreases as function of the proportional distance to Dr. Crowe.
Common phenomena explained by it include:
Faster than the speed of light gravity
Missing dissertations
Infinite positions for the coefficient of friction
Multi dimension travel
Missing Singaporean scientists
Student-"Dr. Crowe, I just heard that scientist think the graviton is mediated by a faster than light force, pretty cool stuff but kind of outlandish don't you think?"
Dr. Crowe- "This is big...."
Student- "I can feel the Crowe's constant building"
