I'll post something else later now that I'm back from travel, but in the meantime, congratulations to my high energy colleagues on the discovery of what is most likely some form of the Higgs boson. A monumental effort. Let the Nobel speculation (about who should share it w/ Higgs, and whether it should be this year or wait for further confirmation) begin! Oh, and see the image at right (not an original) for my feelings about Leon Lederman's term for this particle. (If you don't get it, and don't mind bad language, see here at around the 4:50 mark.)
