I'm sure a lot of you will have heard of the higgs boson, the postulated particle they're trying to find at CERN called the god particle by the media, but what about the oh my god particle? http://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/OhMyGodParticle/ this is a particle that can travel at close to the speed of light: "one and a half femtometres per second slower than light." the implications for this are pretty deep. check out the quicktime section of the article.
Very fucking interesting...thanks for the link a bit of a tangent, but I posit that if the human mind/ body represents a microcosm of the universe, these near light-speed protons or similar must also be present in the human body, facilitating on a molecular level the kind of intra-cellular communication(proton exchange) that would account for certain reaction/calculation times that defy known synaptic speeds. ZW
now that really has put me on a train of thought... there's also research on atoms communicating from different areas of the world at near instantaneous speeds, i'll try and dig it up.
