Not TOP: Advice for CERN scientists

Note: Please watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vg989SQHKBM instead, it has higher resolution so it's much easier to read things on the slides.

This presentation will give general advice to CERN scientists, with a tune broadly approximating that of Don't Stop by Sarah Bettens.

A high-quality Quicktime version of the video, the slides used to make the video, an mp3 of the song, and the lyrics are available at http://oldscientist.com/nottop.html

If you have any ideas and capability to improve this, such as better lyrics or actually being able to sing, we'd love it if you did so and posted it as a response here. I will soon add Strange's bad copy of the background music to the page mentioned above.

We forgot to mention this in the credits, but the rendition of 'Entry of the Gladiators' at the end was performed by one of Sarah Bettens' guitarists at a sound check.

I heard they had cases of scurvy at CERN as some of the masterminds where so involved with their projects, that they didn't eat fresh food for months :)

Its not often I say this, but that was truly, astoundingly epic. CERN love, because you never see the day light any other way.
