Rumours
Hearing a rumour that both independent experiments are now at 4 standard deviations. Together it may mean that they are now at the magic 5 sigma. Any thoughts, gossip etc?

Re: Rumours
I find it all rather exciting. Son, can you explain the two possibilities for what the Higgs may be like. Apparently there is one that's just a sort of dead end and the other which opens up all sorts of possibilities. I can't explain it any better since this really is beyond me.
