wtf? traveling faster than the speed of light?

Essentially thats what a nuetrino is, its a form of radiation from atoms being destroyed in nuclear fusion kinda but its the remainder of atoms splitting/fusing . What's fracking people up is that because its not "technically" radiation therefore it should have mass, but it still travels at the speed of light.

Dose Wormholes

If an ant leaves its regular two dimensional space and lanRAB somewhere else, it might seem to his fellow ants that he traveled faster than any ant can travel in a straight line, but he just used the 2D-ant-world equivalent of a wormhole (through the third dimension in this case).
 
Yeah i was reading that their accuracy in the measurement of arrival of the neutrinos could be pretty spot on, but measuring when they were created and left is a much harder process. That and neutrinos from a supernovae that recently reached Earth were not traveling at the speed indicated by the experiment.
 
Yeah neutrinos have been detected from ~200,000 light year supernovas arriving at the same time as photons going the speed of light. Every reputable source that I've read says this is a bunk experiment.
 
Ihaterutgers kindly asked me to bump this thread. Soooo, anyone heard anything new on this? A lot of stuff I've rabroadmed says that its still bunk,

but I'm pretty scientifically illiterate when compared to THREE semester undergrad astrophysics-taker and expert, Ihaterutgers, so we'll ask him to fill us in with the rest.
