Behold, the "Festival of the Attention-Seeking Troll"....

Back to the article; this is terrific news; it builds upon what was already a substantial body of evidence in favor of the Inflationary Lambda-CDM model of Cosmology;

for those who actually are interested, here's the skinny on the CMBR Anisoptropies (before today's announcement!):

That's the Angular Power Spectrum of the Anisotropies in the CMBR predicted by the Lambda Cold Dark Matter variant of the Big Bang Cosmology, verus the actual measured values gathered by a variety of different observations. Check out that fit!

For those interested in the full skinny; see the source of the above graph for full details:

"Behold, the "Festival of the Attention-Seeking Troll".... "

Stick to the debate if you can, leave if you can't.

That's a pretty tight fit. Funny a theory so obviously wrong fits observation so well.

Funny somebody seemed to understand whose festival was referenced, too.
