What would you do with a Theory of Everything?

I'm very interested to hear what you would do with a theory of everything!
I would put the theory of everything in a simulation program and combine it with an optimization solver. First I would tell the program that it should find the best transistor I could put on a microchip. The software would start by modelling current transistors and measure their efficiency, heat production, speed, reliability and so on. Next the software would try to make variations of the transistor by varying the materials used, the structure and so on.
After a while we should have found several new layouts to build better transistors. Using the new transistors in mainframes would increase our computations speeds a lot and enable us to do even more complex simulations with the theory of everything. Maybe we will also find out if it is possible to build a working quantum computer.

Then I would derive his (or her) phone number.
Then I would call and ask WTF!
Then proceed to ask a whole bunch of questions like Why is our life spans so short?
Then the creator would pause for a moment, and then reply,
"You have the model of everything; and thus, the answers to everything; so why are you bothering me?"
That's when I realize how retarded we humans really are.
The answers to all the questions are in every rain drop and blade of grass; yet we are too preoccupied with nonsense to see it.
If there is a creator of our universe and you get him/her on the phone, I would like to know if his/her reality is real or just another creation like ours.
We are currently flying blind to the majority of existence and this needs to be resolved since, as humans, we are mainly visual creatures that need to see and visualize things in order to understand how to work with, improve and manipulate the environs around us, etc.
I have always believed that if we could create a "visor"-like technology (a la Geordi from Star Trek; which I've dabbled with slightly), then we could rapidly innovate and properly model nature and then the universe.
