Yeah, it's a scandal that so many physicists are involved in this conspiracy. And there is more:

I'm skeptical and cynical. The Higgs/Boson is "believed" to have been found on of all dates July 4. Hmmm. Do I smell an attempt to appease US donors to CERN?

This 27 km tunnel was too large for Switzerland alone. Much is on French territory. If your theory is right, the confirmation will come on 14th of July.  Shocked

One can wonder...where these men pay their taxes for such a huge megastructure?! In Switzerland or in France...or..?!

For it to be anything that could be called sound science the experiment has to be repeated in full twice at a minimum: once with the Swiss tunnel and also with a different tunnel. There is a lot of funding. A lot of kudos. A lot of reasons to stretch the truth to claim false glory. And the way that media hasn't questioned it at all - that sickens me. 

So where are the Higgs Bosons? I answer: in a dark, murky pool of stinking science PR, lies and propaganda  Angry

Saw this joke yesterday:

A Higgs-Boson walks into a church, the priest says "We don't allow Higgs-Bosons in here.". The Higgs-Boson says "But without me how can you have mass?"

It's interesting that even though physicists think we have it cornered, they're rooting for it to escape. It'd be too boring if it really is where we think it is.

Humans really are a contrarian lot.

No worries, MNb, even though we English speakers are a backward lot, the story has been covered in the English-speaking press. And don't worry, the press even did an acceptable job of explaining what a "sigma" is for the vast majority of us who are mathematically challenged.

Alas there is no link to an English site. Maybe googling on Rolf Heuer helps?

(and the search function did not work either).

I think if you use the quick search function (top right) it will only look for posts in the last week, better to use the one above (after 'Help') and change the 'This post was made in the last...' option. Wink
