If you can pull this off, I'd guess it would be worth a lot more than $1M.

An additional point to this is: because the US Dollar is a currency agreed upon by the people of the US, through our government, as a medium of exchange for goods and services, it is in fact backed by the current and future productivity of the United States, which it turns out is still pretty damn valuable.

That's easy! Gravity, of course!

I think we should consider the possibility that this experiment was conducted with the muscular structure responsible for taste firmly lodged in a fleshy cavity on the side of the face.

In simple terms (that I hope are accurate), supersymmetry is one of the predictions made by string theory (although the concept of supersymmetry pre-dates string theory). I believe there are other theories that incorporate supersymmetry as well. So, if the predictions made by supersymmetry don't hold up, any theory that is based on it will need to be revised or abandoned.

"Based on what you know about me so far, and the fact that I'm a decision-maker in your hiring process, how much of a raise do you think I deserve right now?"

Speaking of bullshit logic, why should I contribute to a language that I hate, instead of doing something useful in a language that I actually like?

NO ONE considered the time distortion of gravity? I mean, sure, it's the first time that the time distortion due to gravity has ever been significant in any practical application, but it's still a fundamen... wait, it's not the first time? You're saying that there's an 18-year-old system that relies on this principle to work properly? How many people use this obscure system? Every single person in the civilized world? You'd think that at least one of these researchers would have heard about it, then.

A fair point, which deserves an answer. The reason they're not thinking that is, probably, that there has as yet been no evidence that there were humans in mainland Greece anything like that early. The earliest known sign of human habitation in Europe is only ca. 40k years old.

Humans in Africa, however ...

There is no evidence for Homo sapiens in Europe 130k years ago. However, according to the article, these tools are Acheulean technology, which was used by Homo erectus. These were not modern humans, and this technology was pretty widespread across Europe, as well as Africa and Asia.

"Verbification" is also a neologism, even though the activity that it describes has been occurring in the English language for several hundred years, so don't think you're going to stamp it out any time soon. Also, "source" has always been a verb, and it's use as a noun is probably the result of nounification some 500-700 years ago.
