> Hi,
> I downloaded the experimenters' original paper where they discuss at
> great length all the corrections they applied and THAT correction is
> not mentioned nor acknowledged to be needed. So, we don't know if they
> were aware of it or not.
> In this latest news piece, they do not address the relativistic
> analysis. They do address another criticism, that of too wide a packet
> length for the little neutral ones.
> They suggest possibly running a fiber the 454 miles between the sites,
> to measure the "light-time." It seems to me that if they had accounted
> for the relativistic effects beforehand (and neglected to mention it
> their paper), they would merely say so and have done with it.
> I'm not putting any big money bets on really fast neutrinos, not in
> this frame of reference.
