Meh, not news.

Everyone knows that the laws of physics can be broken by putting wires inside a garden hose.

Aren't all organisms like that, though?

Nah, humans are unique that way. No other species knowingly poisons its food and water sources, and depletes its environment to the point of uninhabitability.

In general, a win for science if proven true.  
 
And probably a tough pill to swallow for the religiously scientific types.

What relevance is it to religion? It's all science.

CERN rules.
First they invent the worldwide web.
Then they create anti-matter.
Then they blow holes in global warming theories just for kicks.
Then they measure neutrinos at greater than the speed of light.
 
I seriously think they are well on their way to opening a black hole, right there in Europe.
We're all gonna get sucked into the event horizon.
just you wait and see....

Tell CERN I want pics or it didn't happen.

Yes, CERN is cool and I'm a fan of the LHC.

But I'm still sad the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) was abandoned. It would have kicked the LHC's butt.

Considering what the government wastes, finishing it would be a drop in the bucket. Grrr.

"Einstein lied to us" That is the most ignorant statement I have seen in my life. 
 
Lying is to say something with an intention to deceive. Really? When scientists tried to explain something and their theories were disproven they lied? Why would he deceive us? And his work on special relativity had pushed science forward. Nothing in science is perfect, it's just a way of people trying to understand the works of nature. Einstein deserves respect. I can't believe someone would actually say he lied. 

Clearly, OP didn't mean that Einstein lied. He was trying to say that Einstein was wrong about something.

Einstein obviously didn't know about the spice that folds space at the quantum level.
 

 
Otherwise known as the Holtzman Effect, which lets you visit anywhere in the universe instantly.

Clearly it was a dramatic statement that children would take seriously.
 
I couldn't really think of anything else that would have made a large impact.
 
I anyone else has a new title, I'll change the thread's name to it.

Did you know why I took it seriously? It's because I admired Einstein's work greatly and he doesn't deserve being called a liar. Someone can make mistakes but that doesn't make him a liar. I do understand the OP's intention - saying that Einstein's theory is "disproven".
 
That's very polite of you to say that, BotByte. Your statement was indeed very mature.
