Awesome, my new homepage. There were flashing lights a second ago but it looks like things settled down.

Einstein accidentally discovered dark energy 100 ------- years ago. We are just now trying to prove it. :1

The numbers I saw from the US in terms of cash-money were closer to the $10 Billion range.

---- you know how many CRX's that would buy? We could put them back into production...

There's so much information that comes from a particle accelerator scientist tried to come up with a way to share it all. From that, the internet was invented.

Saying that nothing useful comes from these types of experiments is very Nigel.

You have hundreds of physicists from dozens of countries that all seem to agree that the LHC is going to be the best use for their money. If you only knew the things you have today becuase of research into these fields.
