I knew the proposal about the time-travelling Higgs was genuine, but I had my suspicions about the time-traveler. How did you you discover it was an April Fool's joke? There's nothing in the original article that's not plausible, and it wouldn't be the first time that someone has escaped from a "secure" mental facility.

And I have read something to the effect that the scientists who proposed the theory of the Higgs preventing its own discovery aren't exactly keeping a bottle of campaign on ice to celebrate when their theory is "proven".
