There have been a number of developments in the world at large since 1988. Back then it was thought that bismuth was stable, but it has since been shown to decay with the longest half-life of any element. On this website I compare bismuth to the neutron, which has the longest lifetime of any subatomic particle. Another is the "discovery" of the top quark, at a mass energy of 180 GeV, which this website interprets differently. A third is the wide acceptance of the Internet as a means of communication, which allows a person like me, outside the world of physicists, to put forth theories like this one without the roadblocks created by individual physicists or magazine publishers.
