At which point exactly. I know this one is a bit more technical than the previous one... Please let me know and I will extend the discussion.

he underlying mechanism is by no way different from the well known Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism of particles physics, except for special relativity that is not necessary for superconductivity.

aaaaah! well known? dammit^^

I read it again from that point and I think I more or less get the Higgs boson now. But that sentence really freaked me out ;-)

Actually, you only need to know the name.... The rest is (not explained) below :p I will rephrase this. Thanks ^^
