Thats what I said...

Like I said a few posts ago, its neither inherently or practically untestable. It does makes a lot of predictions that are only testable at extremely high energies which we can't yet attain, but they are testable once we get the technology so it is definitely not inherently untestable. Even with most of its predictions at high energies, it does make a couple of low energy predictions that will be testable with the LHC, so it isnt practically untestable either. It used to be untestable (and I guess is until the LHC turns on), but it will be tested soon.
