Or could it just=A0be they haven't measured the distance from CERN to Italy accurately enough ?

In 60ns the light travels for about 18m, a distance much greater than the uncertainty of the
measure of the distance between the source and the target.

This is what was said during the press conference at CERN yesterday.<= br>
