neutrinos faster than light

It is worth noting the phrase

neutrinos faster than light

in the recent Cern experiments, but the gutter press, and some (*)supposedly quality newspapers are reporting that

neutrons

have travelled faster than light through several hundred kilometres of rock to a lab in Italy!

For the record, neutrons are unlikely to travel through much of anything 'solid' without interacting with protons and having an identity crisis.


(*)Guilty parties include The Independent, CNet and The Telegraph ... tut tut :)
