> Higgs came to be
Did it? I thought the whole point was that the data that came from LHC showed that it was inconclusive and needed a bigger more powerful machine to prove it. Happy to be proved wrong.
Is this some mandella effect going on? No, they discovered the Higgs and did rough measurements.
I am out of CERN since 2004, and only return there during Alumni related events, not keeping up with has happened with Higgs during the last years.
