2 Englishmen, 2 Scotsmen, 2 Welshmen, 2 Irishmen, 2 Germans and 2 Belgians are stranded on a desert island. After a year:

The Welshmen have formed a choir

The Irishmen are still on the beach fighting

The Scotsmen have started a scotch distillery

The Belgians have not agreed on a single thing

The Germans are slowly constructing a millimetre perfect raft

The Englishmen are still waiting to be formally introduced to each other

That joke makes no sense. Neutrinos aren\'t tachyons.

So, you didn\'t hear about the infinitesimally weird result the OPERA team were getting? It\'e been in the news a lot recently.

OK, so the result is almost certainly a mistake, but any mistake is fuel for humour however tenuous the connection!

The latest episode of the Skeptic\'s Guide to the Universe podcast even mentions the most likely cause for that mistake. I forgot what exactly it is, but it produces an effect that matches the anomaly perfectly. So yeah, turns out the laws of physics aren\'t overturned after all.
