So I’m feeling a little anti-climatic about the Higgs Boson. I’m on high google alert (code red of course) for the confirmation that this elusive “God particle” exists. There are hints, there are murmurs and there are numerous emails alerting me to this fact. I am pins and needles sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for someone, anyone, to say “yes we have found it.” This spec of dust that begat everything, all the stars and the universe and the very matter that makes us what we are. Of course, this is just proof that Einstein was right. E=MC squared (couldn’t find a little 2 to put up there). From nothing, something can come. From energy, matter can be made. This Higgs Boson particle is the existence of the nothing that made the big bang.
