Whatever Happened to the Old Chief Delphi?

well technically, i believe it was the mayans that believed each town had to sacrifice a beating heart every morning to insure that the sun would come up the next day, and assuming that every town across the world is no longer sacrificing beating hearts to their Gods, i think we should be ok as far as the universe collapsing

but just for kicks and giggles, can we delay/perform the final test of the Large Hadron Collider on 12/21/12 just to freak everyone out

I'm pretty sure that days will start getting longer after that date.

That would be fun, but expensive. The LHC uses a lot of electricity, and it has a planned shutdown every winter so the power can be used to keep people warm instead of making pretty flashes of light.
