   My undergraduate degree is in computer science, and I have a MBA from   
   the University of Iowa.   
      
   As with so many things, one cannot, at least on empirical grounds,   
   "prove a negative". and so, it will likely be impossible to ever prove   
   the nonexistence of tachyons.  Having said that, by the principle of   
   parsimony ("Occam's Razor"), we are free to say that such superluminal   
   particles do not exist.   
      
   You are, of course, "free to believe" in whatever!  Regardless,   
   physicists have not yet included tachyons in the Standard Model,   
   relegating them instead to the realm of the "hypothetical".
