    Ok; so neutrinos traveling faster than light... about time... Do you know what this means?

    Scientists at the world's largest physics lab said Thursday they have clocked neutrinos traveling faster than light. That's something that according to Einstein's 1905 special theory of relativity — the famous E (equals) mc2 equation — just doesn't happen.

    Fascinating. Thanks for posting. Indeed, as I've understood it (very slightly), there's a lot of relativity theory that doesn't really apply in other realms, as with quantum phenomena.

    But as to what this means? I expect Gov. Perry would say that Relativity is just one of those theories that's out there, and that God can violate his own speed limits if He wants to. Which, come to think of it, would imply that Hiroshima was actually a staged event, possibly produced by the makers of KING KONG.

    We don't serve faster-than-light neutrinos here.

    A FTL neutrino walks into a bar.
