It seems Einsteiniana's revolution (which consists in abandoning
Einstein's 1905 false light postulate and his special relativity
called by some Einsteinians "the root of evil") will still take place
but very imperceptibly and not before theoretical science has died
irreversibly (then nobody will want to know what exactly Einsteinians
have abandoned and whether they have abandoned anything at all):

http://www.skyandtelescope.com/news/39867717.html
"Observations from NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope hint that
all forms of light may not travel through space at the same speed.
Very-high-energy gamma rays may be slowed down as they propagate
through the quantum turbulence of space-time. If future observations
bear this out, it will rock the foundations of modern physics.....If
Fermi sees a time lag for high-energy gamma rays that becomes larger
with increasing distance, this would present compelling evidence that
these theories of quantum gravity are indeed telling us something
profound about nature at its most fundamental scales. At that time,
Fermi scientists may do more than just uncork the champagne; they can
start reserving themselves a round-trip ticket to Stockholm. "This one
burst raises all sorts of questions," says Michelson. "In a few years,
we'll have a fairly good sample of bursts, and we may have some
answers."
