Didn't they have something like this in Angels and Demons?

Or maybe I'm thinking of another book.

In other words: nothing different

BTD: I knew it was either Dan Brown or Michael Crichton that touched on this. Thanks for remembering!

but then, if you consider that impact to the scale in which its created, thats quite a bit of energy generated from a proton sized particle to reach such a volume of energy. probably something on the scale of a billion fold

neat sh!t. hardly world threatening, but neat none the less

Since I loved Blasphemy so much - I'll definately check out your links.

LARGE HADRON COLLIDER! LARGE HADRON COLLIDER! LARGE HADRON COLLIDER!


I just like saying it over and over. Didn't they used to do that repetitive yelling thing in Bloom County?



Science is awesome. And my money is with Hawking's, by the way.

Where can I get one of these?

Bootstrap: BOBs are usually found in those stores on Sunset... they come in all shapes and sizes. Some are battery operated, and some even plug in! ;)
