So I was browsing the web like daboss9 and i came across this article on yahoo:

http://news.yahoo.com/strange-particles-may-travel-faster-light-breaking-laws-192010201.html

It discusses how the researchers at CERN in the homeland of good chocolate and skiing have had an experiment where neutrinos (neutral subatomic particles) traveled from Geneva (in Swiss-land) to Gran Sasso (better name plz?) in Italia faster than the speed of light by approx. 20 ppm. Not only do these findings break the universal speed limit of light, but they also contradict the theory of relativity and everything else based upon it... so most of modern physics. Whether the results will be backed up/ verified or rejected, we'll have to wait and see, but it is an interesting thought nonetheless-- so read the article!
