quite a good article im reading at work.....

this is what scientists are equating to as their modern day holy grail

http://www.wired.com/wire.../grid.html

Interesting. Good luck to them!

But I thought this thread was going to be about

nice read
further info

great way to spend money

i really don't think they'll find the ever illusive Higgs boson even if
they come up with something it will be differnt from what they suppose
it to be now.

logically speaking the chances of them finding the higgs and thus have
the last piece of puzzele that backs up the current theories for the
standard model of the universe are extremely rare compared to the
stuff they may find that actually turns the current standard model on
it's head.

sure they're looking for the higgs but at such an infinitesimal level,
i'm thinking more will show up. in the end the hadron collider and all
that data it will spew out are gonna throw up more questions than they
will provide answers.

it's still extremely cool though, in the geek spectrum of things


ps: bbc's horizon documentaries rock

i'm totally into that stuff and have believed for a long time that god is ascientifically provable thing, not some jerk in the sky whistling 'i am love'.

in fact quantum physics already found 'god' a long time ago, its the central point of all substance in the universe.

it also has a conscience.

It thinks; "I shouldn't have big banged that universe" ????

wasn't that what Angels and Demons was about?

not really 'about', but yes.....in the beginning of the book, the first guy that got murdered was a CERN-scientist.....

when I started reading the linked article, I thought "oh I have read this" but then I remembered it was in that book

ZombieKitten said:

I kinda got scared when I realized CERN was a real place

I don't have time to read the article at the moment but is this to do with proving the big bang as being the 4 equal laws of the universe coming together to create the universe?

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Yeah I honestly thought stuff like that was TOTALLY made up

3 billion to find a little spec there is no guarantee of finding

I bet a few million starving kids would be disappointed

same here! I actually drove by it last year!

ZombieKitten said:

Well it won't matter much when they create that black hole that will destroy our earth will it?

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

yeah

HamsterHuey said:

no. a conscience doesnt do it in the first place.

The kinda god I would be into would.
Any kind of god should.
