The Bell Tolls Relatively?

I've been reading about the neutrino experiments and the controversy surrounding it. A couple of months ago, physicists at CERN, Switzerland, claimed they found a fatal flaw in Einstein's Theory of Relativity.

Over a three year period, 15,000 neutrinos were shot from an accelerator in Switzerland to a detector in Italy, about 500 miles away and the neutrinos arrived 60 nanoseconds faster than the beam of light.

Yes, that means the neutrinos were travelling faster than the speed of light. At least, according to their experiments.
