Quote:The idea that nothing can exceed the speed of light in a vacuum forms a cornerstone in physics - first laid out by James Clerk Maxwell and later incorporated into Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity.
Judgement is still being based on this fallacy. Stated is that nothing can go from sub-light speed to hyper-light speed.
I take issue with the measurement though. If you are standing in front of some one, your 'now' is different from their 'now'. Therefore, our ability to 'synchronize' two distant clocks and verify this synchronization is definitely in question. May perhaps the neutrinos are traveling at the speed of light and that is what could be used to synchronize the clocks.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
