Aha, my error missed that.

It is running again, the 1 year alarm woke me up at 4 in the morning,
had all the data out and restarted at 9:46 or so,
so slight clock shift (was started at 11:00 or there about last year).
That is no problem time reset once a year, we are looking for seasons,,,
But no sleep is a problem,,
But I am used to make insane long hours,

The professor told us that it is the Higgs field that gives the elementary particles mass,
Now that sure made me curious.

Yes he did say that.
I googled around a bit too after that,

Yea, was there earlier,

You know, I think something very obvious is looking at us, and we simply see the effect
but ignore it sort of thing.
Would be cool to crack that,
It is in the neural net, will see what it comes up with.
Experiment! Great!
