Just curious

Scientists at CERN have recently uncovered startling new evidence suggesting the answer is actually 43.

It appears that AlanBarr is the winner of this thread.

I think the exact new number is 14pi, i.e. approximately 44. You get it by multiplying the dimension of the universe (7) by the circumference of a unit circle

Don't laugh, but scientists (and I think that CERN was involved) have discovered something going faster than the speed of light, meaning that maybe E doesn't equal M C squared.

The long speculation that neutrinos are FTL capable has been a stable of SF thinking for several decades. Imagine that? The were right about something. Like Wells & Verne. Grin!

I did once hear that idea that something was faster than the thought between a man and a maid.

The speed of light is slow, all I should have to say is free crisps and before I had even opened my mouth, before I had even thought about opening my mouth a certain well known LSF employee would appear. I am not going to try the experiment as I am in need of a nice quiet restful Sunday.

Crisps? Someone mention crisps?

You can't beat angel speed

Perhaps, but only if it has less mass than a neutrino and I suspect Pink may have a tad more. The Cern results show neutrinos as exhibiting velocities exceeding c. An explanation is that our world is defined inside a relativistic universe called a membrane universe. The membrane universe is inside what is called a bulk universe. One thought is that the neutrinos exit our membrane universe into the bulk universe but are pulled back by gravity. The bulk universe does not obey Einstienian relativistic laws and thus for a time travel faster than light.

Fascinating isn't it! In fact Her Pinkness may have pinched my crisps before I have even bought them which will help keep costs down and she may have eaten them before she has even pinched them!
