mburns's Journal: The Higgs Boson Is Said To Possess A Non Conserved Charge.

Else the Higgs boson could not vanish in a collision with another. This charge must be considered as geometric in the classical context. How else could it be related to mass?

But the nonconservation is an exception to geometric existence - some nonlocal correlation of the tabs that I think of as representing spacetime failure on the small scale.

I am still not convinced that such a convoluted theoretical explanation of the mass of the electron is viable. The Kaluza-Klein picture provides mass just fine. All that is needed is a quantization of the spacetime form that matches the well known empirical quantization of the electromagnetic field.
