Light just doesn't know when to quit
Neutrinos beat light speed again

Love it! I always felt that the general statement that nothing is faster than light needed to be challenged.

Yes, lots of challenging going on. We're still at the stage where we're more likely to find out that there was an interesting error in the experiment than discover that the neutrinos do actually travel faster than light, but I'm sure that lots is being learned in the process.
Anyway, it looks like they've ruled out the cause of error that those reviewing the experiment felt was most likely. Graham |

Yep! Can't wait to be split into a gazillion neutrinos and shot out into space.
