Like so many folk I hear about CERN and the quest to find the Higgs Bosen particle... all I want to know who lost the dam thing in the first place

?
My question is will they find it or wont they

... and dont tell me to wait I have been waiting long enough and feel specualtion is now mandatory

what are the chances of sucess and of failure... if failure how much of the current theory (cold dark matter theory it called I think) will have to go... everything or just rewind back to pe Higgs specualtion er theory (whatever) and substitute an alternative theory which does not require such a particle...
I gather the HB is sort to give mass to matter...is that all matter or to massless particles because they seem wanting...
Does anyone here (many I guess) follow the progress of CERN
