Re: The Speed of Light is Not a Constant
dude did you read what you posted ??
let me quote a few things
The important thing, however, is that whilst the group velocity can be manipulated to be faster than the speed of light, it is not possible to use this effect to send information faster than the speed of light.
Because of the fast group velocity, the leading edge of the pulse appears to leave the caesium-filled chamber 62 billionths of a second before it arrives.
and the lowing down of light is nothing new diamonds do it all the time light travels at about half of its normal speed in a diamond but slower light would only present more problems for creationist cause the big bang would have happened way before 15 billion years ago

Re: Stick-in-the-mud goes on record
Historians of science are fond of noting that just before the dawn of the 20th century scientists believed that the major advances in physics lay in the past and all that remained was tidying up a few loose ends, such as the spectrum of black body radiation. Perhaps we lay at the dawn of a similar era and the Cern findings and the elusiveness of the Higgs are hints of radically new physics soon to be discovered, as radical as relativity and quantum physics were a century ago.
I read an article a while back that our boys are working with the japanise to invent some new typ of physic though it has mostly to do with proving more dimensions.
And a there is a guy forgot his name who published a theory that works on paper and enables someone to travle faster then light, has something to do with bending space and using that as propultion
So we could find out that our understanding is somewhat flawed.
