Seems to be a broken link , or that PopSci have moved the article into their archive.

The link is working now. I got this. Amazing story.

"In the new results, researchers noticed the proton-antiproton collisions produced more muons than anti-muons, for some reason. Muons are particles similar to electrons and have a negative charge. As the Times' Dennis Overbye, the dean of cosmological reportage, explains: "The miniature universe inside the accelerator went from being neutral to being about 1 percent more matter than antimatter."

That is as close to creating something from nothing as it gets.... matter from antimatter, anyway.

How funny.

How can anyone think they can "see" anything about God without rising above the senses? There is much more to you than you can imagine. You are the instrument for seeing God. Finding a competent person to show you how is the hard part.

How funny.
