SUSY is a joke
In a news article in the 20 November 2012 issue of Nature, titled Truant particles turn the screw on supersymmetry, it is mentioned that "[SUSY] introduces more than 100 new parameters into the standard model, all adjustable." That means they can tweak the theory as they wish on the fly. How credible it is!
The most pathetic part is embedded in the last paragraph:
Fans of SUSY are likely to lose faith only if the LHC finds nothing after a year or two of high-energy running. That would force them to look for an even more audacious idea to break free from the standard model Even so, SUSY will probably live on in Mathematical Physics, says theorist Ben Allanach of the University of Cambridge, UK. "It is such a powerful new mathematical symmetry that it would be a shame if Nature didn't make use of it," he says.
What a silly — but coming from a physicist not surprising — remark! As if Nature has to follow the Mathematics invented by the fragile and severely limited human mind.
