As just a man on the street, all I sse from Cern are scientists going through the proper scientific process and saying, we have these results and we want help to confirm them or show them to be errors.
I am only now getting into science and love the idea that although we have many well proven theories, they can all be changed should evidence be produced that disproves them. I think that an unknown error or other possible theory may explain the results but at the same time would love for them to be true and a whole area of physics to be opened up to explain them.
As for all these conspiracy theories, or is it just the one that big science is a lie. Well to even my uneducated brain it just seems totally crazy. As has been said, the many millions of people that would need to be in on it for it to work rules it out for me.
I am really starting to like science and in particular this area of it. I love that theories can be created and then experiments produced to support (or not) those theories.
I like that any true scientist will have to accept good evidence, even if it goes against personal beliefs.
I have some friends who pretty much believe any conspiracy going. When they started to get into them I was thinking of making conspiracy bingo cards and marking off each theory as they talked about them. I think FMOTL and chem-trails are the in thing this week.
But anyway my point is that they love their conspiracy theories so much that it makes no difference what evidence you put in front of them, they will never believe it.
I guess what I want to say is that, from what I have read, this Anders guy believes in what he believes in and no proof will sway him. I would hazard a guess that all the clever guys here (and I hope I can learn something from you guys) would change their opinions if good evidence was placed before them, unlike a CT nut who will never concede to evidence.
Sadly I can't contribute to any of the science in this thread as I am only now just getting my head around the concepts of physics and the math is beyond me. I hope that with hard work and learning that will change.
Oh and Anders there is a little poker analogy that I feel might fit here. If you can't tell who the fish is at your table, it's probably you.
