"I'm Mad as Hell and I'm Not Going to Take it Anymore!" Remember "Network"? Watch it again real soon; compare today's Cable and TV news. That movie was dead on. Today, Truth, Justice & the American Way are all in peril and I am mad as hell. Here are my cantankerous takes on recent news and politics and other things that go bump in my brain.

Truth Remains Stranger than Fiction

this spring . . . two teams of physicists at Fermilab succeeded in measuring a particularly odd schizophrenic particle, known as the strange neutral B meson, that flips back and forth between being itself and its own opposite antiparticle three trillion times a second. Weird as that behavior is, it was right on the money as predicted by the Standard Model.

''Our real hope was for something bizarre,'' admitted Young-Kee Kim of the University of Chicago and a spokeswoman for one of the Fermilab teams.

ESSAY; Physics Awaits New Options As Standard Model Idles, NY Times, July 4, 2006.

Something "more" bizarre than a particle that turns into its own opposite and back three trillion times a second?

Does anyone besides me wonder what Young-Kee Kim considers "bizarre"?
