    What do you reckon then? Nostradamus predicted this? The world will end this Saturday?

    hope not, I don't get paid for another week:eek:

    Link fixed:)

    reading more from the website...

    "Collisions in the LHC will generate temperatures more than 100 000 times hotter than the heart of the Sun."

    "The CMS detector is built around a huge solenoid magnet. This takes the form of a cylindrical coil of superconducting cable that generates a magnetic field of 4 teslas, about 100 000 times that of the Earth."


    ... so if we don't burn to death we'll suffocate in space as the earth gets ripped apart:)

    I saw the title and instantly thought to myself "hmmm looks like computerking has been sniffing the glue again" bless him! :) Also Nostradamus was a complete hack! But I am looking forward to the LHC finally being switched on!

    So we could find the "God" particle and we should understand black holes etc 1000x more after this experiment, right?

    I'm going to a wedding reception on saturday. This means I can shamelessly try it on with everything in a dress and not worry about the consequences! Woot!

    I read that as "try on a dress".

    Still, you've given me plans for Saturday.
