Alarm's over. Albert got it right. Speed of light is still there with new neutron test:

And that is how scientists make fools of themselves and then congratulate themselves on exposing their own incompetence. Week after week we are being bombarded with sensational new discoveries and theories which then fade as rapidly as they appeared. Before making their results public, doing their interviews, apparently justifying the billions of dollars being pumped into their activities, why don't these folk wait till AFTER their "measurements" have been independently scrutinized and tested?

Here's my response when this all surfaced last year
http://agnosticsinternational.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=12030#p12030-Was the announcement premature - well perhaps, was the retraction adequate, perhaps not.-But ultimately it is society that puts governments into place that by and large have been cutting funding to science organizations and making them "accountable" by publishing and being relevant and inadvertently encouraging scientists to be publicity hounds. Gone are the days where Darwin could potter along for decades getting facts in place. And even then it was Wallace that finally spurred Darwin into publishing.-
I don't see the benefit in members of the general public crucifying scientists.

> An artifact of the measurement? I wonder how long it took him to prepare that statement. Why not just say they got it hopelessly wrong? One article that I read suggested the mistake was due to a faulty wire! These folk use language in much the same way as politicians, and on my personal trustometer their rating is rapidly approaching the same round figure.-That is why I read and interpret, with a good laugh at times.
