My husband has been anxiously awaiting this - almost to the point of obsession. He starts talking about it and my eyes glaze over.
This will be the biggest non-event since Y2K.
Your attitude is disgusting and is precisely why Europe is building the LHC and why China's economy is growing at astronomical rates, while American students can't get into American graduate schools.
You apparently want to let others do the thinking for Americans.
That's precisely what critics of atomic physics were saying in the 1930s. Fortunately, Adolf Hitler agreed with you and Franklin Roosevelt didn't.
Good post. Those folks have stopped thinking a long time ago. A book tells them all they need to know. Why investigate anything?
By contributing enormously to our understanding of quantum physics. If you use a computer or consume electricity, this just might be important.
Much ado about nothing, for two reasons. First, the test on Wednesday only fires particles in one direction. There will be no collisions that might trigger a black hole or the other fears some have expressed. Second, everyone knows that the end of the world is schedule for Dec. 21, 2012 so obviously there’s nothing to worry about right now.
Why do you say this is a remarkably bad idea? Because they might find something that we don’t already know exists?
Because it will create a whole new universe of stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. If it is a bad universe full of bad stuff we can ship the liberal/progressive hippies off to it.
Imagine him as the Fed chairman.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine. - BTTT
Well shoot, the first one benefited us, no? :-)

Why do we exist? Don’t look to the stubborn string theorists

I have qualms about screwing with anti-matter, black holes, all that stuff. What’s the worst that could happen? heh
That’s it!! You’ve got it!
Most of the work is to develop a unified theory about gravity, forces, etc. This is what Einstein was working on after relativity until his death.
