This story is from Michael Stroh of Washington Post News Service published on February 23 - on 35-year old Magueijo of Imperial College, London who 'hypothises' that in ancient times *light actually travelled faster, in vaccum*.
This VSL theory does appear:'Very Silly Livewire' for gossip sections.
Yes, if there is anything faster than light: IT IS HUMAN THOUGHT that recognises no binds!

*****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!
And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule! ***** ***** ***** *****

I heard an article on the radio about theoretical researchers suggesting (again) that light might not have constant speed. This would be interesting for metric definitions.
Unfortunately I can't find a link to the article.
