Despite the great strides that man has made in the past few hundred years, we still can say what Socrates said long ago: that the wisest man is the man who is most aware of his own ignorance.
The recent news flash that researchers had observed a neutrino particle exceeding the speed of light did not excite the world much. If true, though, this bit of information should totally change physics as we know it.
CERN's reported violation of Einstein's theory most likely means the experimenters made a mistake. Most physicists like myself won't believe the result until every possible caveat has been investigated and/or the result is confirmed elsewhere.
