I'm somewhat skeptical of some of what is said, however I think his commentary is none-the-less interesting.

I was wondering when someone would post something on this topic. I watched the announcement the other day. Cool stuff.

:-P

And the "god particle" thing is a load of crap. That name came about from a shortening of how one of Higgs' colleagues was describing this thing as they were working on it "...that godDAMN particle..." as it was so hard to find. This was shortened to 'god particle' and now this is how all journalists report it as it sounds snappier and makes for more controversy.

Dude, I can't tell if you are serious or just BSing. Usually there is a smiley after when you BS so I guess this is real.

I never knew that.
