Most scientists were very skeptical of the neutrino affair in the first place. Even the scientists who conducted the experiment were pretty sure something was wrong, and that was reflected in the published paper. The whole thing just got blown out of proportion by idiot journalists. | ||

There were too many implications that made no sense with our physical world. However, the existence of the Higgs boson has been waiting to be confirmed for decades. | ||

If tomorrow evidence came that every theory science is currently using now is wrong it would cause everything to change. Not to reject it because it contradicts things that are already proven. In science there is only shown beyond reasonable doubt and not shown beyond reasonable doubt. | ||

Thanks! I really like Jorge Cham's work. I'll add it to the OP. It's disappointing that we're about to reach the conclusion of a decades long search, which is one of the most important events for the human experience and this thread keeps getting lost, while "Fit to Lick?" dominates the discussion for the night. | ||

Quite disappointing and unfortunate indeed. | ||

I might write down as much as can on paper and then type after so I don't fall behind. | ||

I apologize that this initial post will use EST but that's what my clock shows. After the event is done, I'll edit the OP with the LR so the information is all in one place. The stream is showing various views of the auditorium filling up. Nothing of interest is happening yet. From time to time, the stream stops which I assume is due to the high volume of users. It is now 2:09 am EST. | ||
