God particle sheds no light on God but lots on Wally : Comments

By Steven Meyer, published 10/7/2012

So everyone now knows about the Higgs boson and what it means, but what about its political ramifications?

I don't believe in the Higgs boson. There's no mystical energy field that controls my density.

Cheers,

Tony

Though A or is it B-mused(?), I don't doubt your claim Tony, that "There's no mystical energy field that controls my density."

However, it may be responsible for how dense some posters on OLO are.

Alternatively, you misunderstand symmetry in physics and what is referred to as 'spooky science' - think of it as 180 degrees of separation...

It could be because the Higgs boson doesn't believe in you.

Love the article Steven, and the comments! Well, mostly.

As one OLO'er recently said in that other place:

>> a laugh is a much better way to start the week; we seem to have been getting a little intense lately, some very talented humorists on this blog ... have a great week <<

Seems that same OLO'er is just blowing smoke, again ... it's only Tuesday.

I also was highly amused by the article, Steven; very clever, and it turns out Sherlock Holmes is a wally! I note also you were careful to be by-partisan on the politics--very diplomatic. My theory, however, is that some political persuasions are more prone to the wally field than others.

I'm glad I was able to give everyone - well, almost everyone - something to chuckle about.

Runner, lighten up.
