neutrinos.

overheard and not perfectly remembered:

gma to ajt: did you hear about the neutrinos that go faster than light?
ajt to gma/gpa: what are treenos?
daddy & gpa to ajt: neutrinos are subatomic particles, like the particles in atoms.

silence from ajt. conversation moves on to some other topic.

hours later.

mommy comes home from a conference.

ajt to mommy, as she's getting out of the car: mommy, mommy, mommy, did you hear about the trees that grow faster that light bulbs in atoms?
