Looks like the Higgs particle becomes more and more elusive. Results from experiments at Fermilab have ruled out a mass between 160 and 170 GeV. This of course narrows the search for the upcoming experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, but as they keep finding these no-go windows, the idea of succeding in finding this particle seems more uncertain. Also, a consequence of all these is that the remaining ranges seem to be harder to search, because the implication is that the Higgs particle would not be as massive as expected (below 160 GeV), which makes it harder to spot.
I have a pop drink riding on this, so they better find it! :-)

Told you! I can almost taste my drink...
Not so fast! There's still a chance they'll find it :-)
