The Large Hadron Collider!

Because I ended up in computers and did not become a scientist like I was supposed to be, I will be playing Spore when the LHC powers up this Sept. 10. But what a fun time to be alive!

There are
conspiracist scientists though who believe the LHC will end the world. --Via the creation of micro black holes or strangelet particles. Maybe I should have had Spore overnighted instead of being sent via two-day shipping. That doesn't leave a lot of time to finish the game before the end!



And they've even sued to have the LHC shut down. Luckily, most scientists disagree. Michio Kaku talks about what they're hoping to find in this interview.



Time has an okay photo essay on the LHC, but The Boston Globe has the best shots I think. Neat stuff!

    I think people can trade your creations with Spore. If so, you'll have to share your troll when you're done! I can't wait to make something. I used to be a huge fan of the game Creatures.

    What are you playing nowadays? TR? WoW? I noticed last week the AoC guild had. :( Are you trying WAR too?

    Hope Elske is doing better. She's going to be having a birthday before you know it, and enjoy your first Father's Day!!! :-)
