60 minutes and the Higgs Boson
I dont know whether any one watched 60 minutes last night. A feel good piece with Fred Watson at CERN and the big bang story and so on. The interesting aspect was that there were 5 enthusiastic particle physicists from Melbourne Uni interviewed and the presenter asked the question "Put up your hands if you believe we will find the God particle (the Higgs boson)" and there were only two of the five who did so.
This surprised me as I would assumed amongst particle physicists this would be a given.
Any comments?
