The Mythical Tunnel Between CERN and Central Italy

Posted by samzenpus on Sunday September 25, 2011 @02:36PM from the just-the-facts-mam dept.

fph il quozientatore writes "Mariastella Gelmini, the Italian minister of Public Education and Scientific Research, complimented the researchers for the recent (supposed) discovery of faster-than-light neutrinos. Her press release mentions that Italy funded the construction of a 'tunnel between the CERN [in Geneva] and Gran Sasso [the labs in Central Italy].' Google maps reports the distance between the two labs as over 900km — but of course once the tunnel is open to traffic the trip will be much faster."

As it is offensive to Mariastella and all Italian women.
Moreover it is also a straight personal attack to the Italian PM.
This website is clearly directed and read by the Italian Left parties.
If you won't comply you'll be suded by our attoneys, have the website obscured in Italy and brought in prison for a year or two.
Sincerely yours
S.B.
