LHCNews Mar 23, 2010 - New World Record + High energy collisions next Tuesday!

During the LHC ramped two proton beams at the highest energy ever seen, setting the new world record of 3.5Tev per beam. Collisions at 7 Tev are planned for Mar 30th. Follow the event live on www.cern.ch!

Yes, scientists. How dare you meddle with the forces of nature. I still blame you for removing the bubonic plague which was VERY POPULAR in the middle-ages with all your foolhardy devilish wizardry. No one will enjoy it again. What has science EVER done for US??!!! As I sit typing away my stream of ill-educated dross on my high-speed internet connection I ask you to PROVE IT! Or must I move, in protest, to the "planet Period" (which is on the other side of planet Jupiter next to planet Colon)

Maybe RayneMarina should stop worrying about the LHC and lay off the LSD.

hahaha press 1 then 7 consecutively then press 2 to hear "inject the beam" randomly it should sound like a funny beat repeat the processes keep pressing 1 and 7 then hit 2

@transfoby Oh,and don't forget the stranglets!AND THE BLACK HOLES!!!!AND TEH EVUL SCIENCE OMG!!111!!!!!

[transfoby]

This is Rockfeller Funoudation funded project...very interesting

[transfoby]

@Stickstacks12 I don't expect my opinon to be taken in any way...I was just voicing my opinion..I hope I am wrong.

@transfoby

One can argue for the re-allocation of resources towards just about anything that they think is better for humanity than whatever those resources are currently used for. If you ask me the LHC is money and time well spent when compared to many other programs out there. Also, someone who says "these people do not look like serious scientists" as a means to question the validity of an experiment is very obviously not someone whose opinion should be taken seriously. 

[transfoby]

@Stickstacks12 Why, because instead of carving a tunnel 27 km long for an 'experiment' could have been used to builid sustainable energy power plants and take care of our home - planet Earth.

[transfoby]

Why do they all look like amateurs? Honestly these people do not look like serious 'scintists'.

[transfoby]

@jesmarin..the evidence was in the news...several times the first, out of 8 magnets, heatede in the initial stages of the experiment, and liquid hellium that cools the magnets excaped into the area around the cylinder. I don't think it evaporated in the heterosphere....Granted, it is only liquid at very low temperatures, so what I know from chemistry, it probably turned into a gas. However, it could have been much more dangerous substance. We, the general public, are not that stupid

[jesmarina]

@transfoby please present the evidence that this experiment is failing. Dont talk your way around it, just SHOW ME THE EVIDENCE. And whats the problem with some liquid helium escaping ??? It evaporates and ends up in the heterosphere or in space...........you clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
