faster than the speed of light. (The reality of FTL neutrino thingie is still too early to tell).
Especially if you actually *read* the actual journal article rather than the pop-sci interpretation of it, it basically says "our experiment had the neutrinos showing up 60ns faster than lightspeed - we can't find what we did wrong, does anybody else see what we screwed up?" - i.e. an appeal to "with enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow". (Personally, I'm betting on a mascon somewhere in northern Italy distorting the actual path taken so the actual geodesic isn't what they thought it was..)
