Let’s see...we are spending billions of dollars and thousands of man hours of highly educated people to try and find this little particle to show that all that we see could have happened be chance (dumb luck)...I fail to see the logic.

Yes, you do.

Your first failure of logic is that you are assuming people are doing this just "to show that all we see could have happened by chance (dumb luck)." That is not at all why anyone does research.

What can you do with that knowledge?

Bigger better bombs?

A Bombs.
H Bombs.
Neutron Bombs.
Boson Bombs.

There has got to be a way to explode the universe,
after all it happened before.

That boson report is just a rumor, whereas there’s indisputable evidence that a bozo has been detected in the white house.

Basic research is what we're doing when we don't know what we're doing.

It's a little frustrating to see all the taxpayer money pissed away on "research" that has no return on the investment. We all work hard to earn the money that is confiscated and passed around to folks that screw around.

"might lead to technology like...the possibility of sending messages backward in time"

If it becomes possible to send messages backwards in time, why aren't we reading those messages from the future, now?

I think it is a term that describes clocks that are right twice a day.

You don't think they will waste their messages on an era with so many non-believers in Man's ability to span time and also become "I Am", do you?

Yes, it does. Science is not done for practical purposes. Engineering is done for practical purposes.
