Here is a sample of how messed up particle physics has become. Einstein puts forth a simple concept that unifies mass and energy. Up to that time it was either mass or energy. Here we are almost a hundred years latter and this simple statement has resulted in this. Notice how it has sounds like a bedtime story.

I can't even find a name for a proton moving near the speed of light. Alpha Beta Gamma Delta maybe? But these guys have a name for stuff so small it only exists for a little while in a far off land call the neucleus that no ones ever going to see except with multi million dollar majic glasses. What a shameful waste of young productive minds feeding them this krap.
