What's with the thing about Einstein being wrong, anyway? I thought his views on local realism were sort of almost well known.
Argh.

Just a few weeks ago I was having a conversation with this guy about how cool it is that we don't know everything, that there are always new barriers to breach. He kept insisting that there was absolutely no way that Einstein will ever be shown to be wrong.
Everything changes, and it's fantastic.
Still Sheepin'They have general relativity effects factored in, right? Please tell me they did.
Now using Trivialis handle.How is "some physicists showed that some other physicists were wrong" supposed to be anti-physics?

Is this really a problem if CERN takes over the world? A lot of countries would probably get affordable education with them in command. ^_^;

Twenty years from now, our friends from Alpha Centauri will approach our first interstellar ship as it goes on its merry way and say, "It took you guys long enough."

There could still be some error overlooked somewhere, but turning to the international community does make it very likely that they tried their best and couldn't catch anything in the math that makes it unreliable.
There almost certainly is an error somewhere. See my previous post.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayStoryyeller, tempting as it is to think that, see this:

The experiment has been repeated by Cern often enough with the same results to warrant a formal scientific discovery by all existing standards. Only because of the implications are they this Hell bent on seeing it duplicated independantly first.

As cool as this sounds I'm skeptical.
