Space.com made a big deal out of it to. Why don't you email them with your concerns.

Sure, everybody made a big deal out it, but unless it's corroborated many times, it really is no big deal.

So, if emperical measurements are approximations, and measurements never perfectly represent what's being measured, then the fact a measured value deviates from a calculated and predicted value is why we have statistical methods.

Where's the big problem ?

How does any of that invalidate Planck's constant, for example ? Wasn't that a claim made on your thread ?

No reason to get bent out of shape buddy, I'm just looking for an explanation of why it's such a big deal statistical measurements are " shifty ".
