innnnnnteresting. Been following the hunt for the higgs a long time now. Now there might be as many as five...

God particle? Most bizarre thing I've heard of since the word "Intelligent Spam" was added to my vocabulary.

Why so many dimensions though? I'm not against more than 4 dimensions (3 spatial, 1 temporal), but you've got to be able to explain them. I don't care how beautiful the math looks if it doesn't pan out in reality. The String Theorists have tried more than 4 dimensions but can't explain away the huge discrepancies between experimental fact and the predictions of the theory when it comes to the cosmological constant. Hippie needs to get a job.
