Re: OK, Humanity's screwed when they turn on the Large Hadron Collider
Ah... good, I don't have to start a new thread on the LHC, which got started up within the past day (9/10-ish):

Metafilter reports (9/9/2008)
MSNBC summarizes (9/8/2008)
A few WIRED! posts:
Last Major Piece Fitted (2/29/2008)
The sealing of the Liquid Nitrogen and Liquid Helium Cooling System (11/7/2007)
Summary from 11/30/2006

Somewhere there was a gallery from WIRED, but I guess this will have to do. (Boston.com, bigger than WIRED!'s images too).

I was talking to a classmate about it, and he was super excited about the superfluid properties of the liquid helium, which after seeing this video is pretty neat.

Enjoy!

-Joe
