Protons are smaller than we thought?!?

io9 comments on a Nature article, Protons are smaller than we thought...could the entire universe be wrong? "Protons are 0.00000000000000003 meters smaller than we thought. That sounds like nothing, but it means one of these things must be true: Undiscovered particles are lurking, quantum mechanics needs recalculating...or the universe is impossible. (Here's hoping it's the first two.)"
