Victory at CERN - Higgs Boson found?

At CERN, scientists while researching proton collisions at the LHC [Large Hadron Collider] stumbled upon the probable evidence of the existance of Higgs Boson - "The God Particle" after years of research.!
Both ATLAS and CMS gave the level of significance of the result as 5 sigma on the scale that particle physicists use to describe the certainty of a discovery. One sigma means the results could be random fluctuations in the data, 3 sigma counts as an observation and a 5-sigma result is a discovery. The results presented today are preliminary, as the data from 2012 is still under analysis. The complete analysis is expected to be published around the end of July.

Hmm! With all the hullabaloo about CERN finding the "deepest secrets of human origin" and "everything else" on Indian news channels, I wasn't actually expecting any miracle! :p

Waiting for this month to end until the number crunching and analysis is complete? Hell, I can wait for another year. But I just don't want the answer to be "42". :?

I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them
this was looong wait for who ever were interested in this" mystery particle"
any one knows whats use it is for us ? except more pages in our physics texts??
