A touch smaller?  4% is huuuge.  Did they mean 4 parts per billion?  I know it is premature judgment and all that, but this result must be wrong, waaaaay wrong.  I can't imagine how this could be right.  No way!  Can't be, just can't.  That result messes up quantum theory all to holler.  Actually it messes up more than just quantum theory.
