A consistent theory of free tachyons has shown how tachyon neutrinos can explain major cosmological phenomena, Dark Energy and Dark Matter. Now we investigate how tachyon neutrinos might interact with other particles: the weak interactions. Using the quantized field operators for electrons and tachyon neutrinos, the simplest interaction shows how the chirality selection rule, put in by force in the Standard Model, comes out naturally. Then I wander into a re-study of what we do with negative frequencies of plane wave solutions of relativistic wave equations. The findings are simple and surprising, leading to a novel understanding of how to construct quantum field theories.
