I'm seeing a theme to your current posts Corkey! I love art though my talents lie with stick figures lol

So it appears that both the ATLAS and CMS experiments found a particle that has the properties hypothesized for the Higgs Boson! Well, that would just about wrap up the Nobel prize in Physics this year (or possibly next).

And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people.
