Followed by a depressing bunch of comments which prove no-one is listening to what the writer has to say. There was an excellent programme on the LHC on BBC 4 earlier in the week. I was surprised to find that most of the researchers rated the chances of finding the Higgs at 90%. Though clearly I have little knowledge on which to base it, my opinion is less, because I just instinctively feel the standard model is too complex and something is going to (or needs to) be found that enables us to simplify it. __________________________________________________________ Oh you young people.

Awesome. I'm looking forward to Wednesday too. Even if the pseudo-scientific "black hole" alarmist nut-jobs are right, then at least we'll get a short week. - Soul ______________________________ Written drunk, edited hung over - a brief synopsis of the story of my life. The Modern Mythology |

The headline from this article from the Times is rather fabulous.

Almost makes you sorry there isn't going to be any black hole. That said, the article does play up the doomsday scenario and kind of pays lip service to the truth. ~ Gal-El You don't have to be a basketball player, you can be the president of the United States. ~ LeBron James. |

Exciting!
  "The other night I dreamed that King George VI was dead, and that Helen Hardinge had somehow or other got herself proclaimed Queen of England, and that I was detailed to go and tell her that it wouldn't do at all; and when I did this, all she said was, 'You see, I am really Queen Mary,' and I said, 'Oh very well' - words to that effect, and woke up. Last night I dreamed that Eisenhower came to stay with us, and he insisted on being put to sleep in the dog kennel, with a collar and chain about his neck." - Sir Alan Lascelles, 19 February 1980 |

Yes they are I posted that I the comments made me with the world would be all squished up by a black hole. Stephen Hawking was on the radio today talking about it. He said there's reactions like this going on in the atmosphere every day, but that if they did get to make one, and it was like he said, he'd get a Nobel prize  I can't wait! What time's it getting switched on? I want to make sure I'm next to a radio! ____________________________________________________ tiny ball of rage. hilarious, condensed rage - Snazz I never really lost my virginity... it just sort of eventually wore off - Chris Addison Um...

Wicked!
The UK Government's supplied £500m to this project alone, the biggest investment in a single scientific project it's ever done "The other night I dreamed that King George VI was dead, and that Helen Hardinge had somehow or other got herself proclaimed Queen of England, and that I was detailed to go and tell her that it wouldn't do at all; and when I did this, all she said was, 'You see, I am really Queen Mary,' and I said, 'Oh very well' - words to that effect, and woke up.

Forget black holes, do you want something really scary?

Already posted in Doctor Who thread!  The BBC seems to be doing some really good stuff for what they are calling "big bang day". They have an interview with Dara O'Briain! *********************** There once was a bard of Hong Kong Who thought limericks were too long. - Gerard Benson. |

New / old ant species found!
What baffles me is the name.
"Heureka" means ant? Archimedes, upon making his breakthrough discovery, triumphantly shouted: "ANT!" ? Are they sure? __ The brickchewing, camera flaunting restroom saint formerly known as Babylon the Bride |
