The Higgs Boson is believed to be a particle(s) that give mass. With the recent discovery of the Top Quark, it now seems possible that the LHC is actually powerful enough to find the Higgs Boson.
As far as infinity goes ( ∞ ), there is the Tower of Babel problem. The tower has every book ever written, with every permutation, and every book every written in the future, with every permutation, and is not full. Adding into that Super String theory (pick a flavor, such as the one with 13 "worlds") and you have further quantified the tower. Since math appears to truly hold all the keys to unlocking the universe (Phi [golden number] for example), it seems to be possible to define infinity as either human-unknowable because of mental limitations, or mathematically impossible. Which of course, is a technical way to say it exists or not. I lean towards the mathematical impossible solution.
