reflection on the FTL neutrino experiment

[meradudd]

"If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong.
In that simple statement is the key to science.
It doesn't make a difference how beautiful your guess is.
It doesn't make any difference how smart you are, who makes the guess or what his name is;
If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong" - Richard Feynman

But only if experiment is properly constructed.

Doesn't matter, per se. The theory must follow the results, including accounting for the 'proper' or 'improper' design of the experiment.

If the theory does not, then it is wrong.
