While this is quite interesting and points to a mechanism long -proposed in theoretical physics, the null-hypothesis is only just barely ourside the 3-sigma range. In particle physics, 3-sigma results come and go all the time. They should be seen as nothing more than an indicator that more research and experimentation should be done in this area (as is already underway with new neutrino detectors in the works in both Japan and South Dakota).
