the large hadron collidor particle accelerator

i have some explaining to do at work now

[Radar]

*feels kinda silly*

It's 10:10am, and...

I'M STILL HERE!!!

WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Atlanteanlost]

Well, they have only just switched it on, they haven't actually done any colliding yet.

So, something to look forward too

I feel pretty stupid having bet my life savings on the world ending this morning

[lost]

Dang

As I say, a little notice would be nice... rather than sitting at my desk waiting for God (the particle, not the beardy man!)

[rustyuk]

We are all still here, and were going absolutly nowhere!... Hmm it knew it was all boll*cks to me that we wer going to die. lol..

Glastonbury 09 stil going to happen now wooooo wooooo haha.

The project manager is Lyn Evans, a Welshman.

Now, if it does turn out that he is responsible for some f**k-up which ends the world, I would just like to apologise on behalf of Welsh people everywhere for destroying the planet in a single day...

f**k sake, if I had known the world wasn't going to end I wouldn't have told my mate that I've had feelings for him for three years.

But they don't start colliding shit until 21st October.

+1

LOL Pablo Evans

[Katster]

Is there an echo in here?

Or perhaps it's started to work....are we all on a different time scale from each other now

[Radar]

Who dat?

No? Didn't realise that, thought it was all today .... have (belatedly) checked the BBC background story but I'm struggling with the science on all this ....

All they did today was calobrate it to run two proton beams (one clock and the other anti - to prepare for the inevitable smashing together) which took around an hour each one.

When they actually use it properly they'll propel the beams together at 99.99999% the speed of light

So this was all a load of arse then.

Why didn't someone point this out?

Or is this why they've been saying that there's no chance of ending the world today? Clever c**ts!
