Cox also happens to have a gorgeous accent and is slim and passionate and has dark hair.
Not that that's my type Dani. Ahem. Anyway, Neil Finn predicted this years ago: In time you'll see that some things Travel faster than light In time you'll recognise That love is larger than life

That needs some explanation from the technical geeks to the laymen.
To me, loose connection means intermittent signals, not faster ! |

It was a cable to an error-correction device of some sort, so an input to the formula used to calculate the speed was off, if I understand correctly.

If the observation was correct, it does not mean that Einstein was wrong, there have been many repeatable observations made that prove that Einstein was right. It just means that we have observed something that we do not understand. This is not a new thing, us making an observation of something and we do not understand the underlying mechanics of what we are observing. I think it is much more common than we would like to admit. The whole of science is really about us revising what we thought we knew, or adding to what we don't all ready know only to revise what we thought we knew.

Apparently there is still nothing faster than a speed of light, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.
