First off, neutrinos have mass.

Let me repeat, they have mass.

That means they must move slower than light always.

I will buy this as soon as I buy a perpetual motion machine. The most likely explanation is some form of systematic error on the part of the Italians.

I wonder (as a layman) whether what really happened here, assuming that c is truly a constant and cannot be exceeded by any particle with mass, is that a new particle has been discovered. As I understand it, evaluating the data provided by any of CERN’s colliders/accelerators is highly technical, and I note that Ereditato has failed - in any of the articles I have read - to mention the degree of certainty they have been able to ascribe to this event.
