Only just got round to some of this backlog.

Commis,

If I had one, I'd attach a Higgs' Boson to this message so you could Be
Famous[TM] for finding it.

The one I was after was too small for the mesh of my flutterby net.

Since no-one knows what one looks like there must be a finite (Ok,
small, but finite) chance that Higgs is a Higgs boson. Has anyone
tried colliding him with anything?
