Recently if you visit digg or reddit, several stories will pop up about the Large Hadron Collider.
Even PhDComics is running an special of it.
Those having the most fun are the half-life fans with their found "coincidences". (Freeman at site. G-man at site. Headcrabs at site)
Several comments seem to be tired about the doomsday jokes, but thank the flying spaghetti monster for them; It is because of this that now I know the biggest particle accelerator now exists near Geneva thanks to the European Organization of Nuclear Research, (CERN, acronym must make sense in one of those languages) and that it has been one day since the first beam was fired and we are all alive and well.
It will be on October 21 when the world will come to an end when the first high-energy collisions is planned. It matches my Prelim defense date, therefore I feel a certain grim dystopian future is coming on such a date.
I will be checking here for regular updates on the status of the world.
And to learn more about it I will play here when time allows.

Wow, you have certainly managed to document well all the spoofs and scares about the project!
In October 21 we'll exhibit a total existence failure
