You may have seen this in the news, but it's really amazing/interesting/confusing.
Researchers at CERN have successfully made nutrinos travel faster than the speed of light, which is impossible. Fermilab in Chicago had reached similar results a few years ago, but their antiquated american equipment is so crappy, the margin of error was greater than the amount by which nutrinos exceeded light speed, so they tossed out the results. The newer CERN facility is much better and its margin of error is smaller, so they are certain that their results are accurate. Except for the little matter of it being impossible. I really wish we hadn't scrapped our half built super collider in Texas. it would be useful to have a state of the art facility to compare the CERN results to. Quote:

I hear that everytime I watch The Big Bang Theory, but I only now learned that it's by The Barenaked Ladies! Who'dathought.

My ex-roommate got sick of me saying, every time, "That's the Barenaked Ladies, you know." ;)

The Big Bang Theory makes me cringe.
To me it's a typical American comedy in that they forgot to put in the comedy and instead just used stereotypical characters, some shouting and occasional gay innuendo. (John Barrowman auditioned as Will for Will and Grace - he was rejected for being too straight. So they employed a straight actor instead. But hey, thank FSM) Sorry. I thought Friends was awful, so what do I know? ETA - to balance, there are British comedy shows that I find lame too. |
Oh, another pooh-pooh.
We're such philistines. |
Try watching Keeping Up Appearances with a straight face.
You'll think the wind has frozen it there. Or My Family. Or many more. I might pooh-pooh. But I pooh-pooh on merit according to my own tastes, not according to awards or critics' choices or longevity. I pooh-pooh as I see fit. Etc etc ;) |
