The first moments in the life of the LHC will be an exciting time for the CERN staff, and will be captured by more than 250 media organizations from all over the world.<BR/><BR/>The first injection of the beam into the machine will be between 9:00 and 10:00 a. m.'<BR/><BR/>'The first moments of life' sentence caught my eye. We know it has already been tested but this is symbolic for first start up chart. Elsewhere on their site though it says first beam will be at 09.30CET<BR/><BR/>Inauguration ceremony 3-6pm 21st October 2008 46°13'59'' N; 6°3'20'' but again confusion as to actual date that collisions will take place.<BR/><BR/>Still searching for birthdate of Lyndon Evans.

What you've written here is far more insightful than my capsulized treatment of this complex topic. I'm an astrological layman but I certainly enjoy your blog and respect the work you put into it!Gregory LeFeverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11872137290650811690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30912075.post-16081415842893849042008-09-07T20:47:00.000+01:002008-09-07T20:47:00.000+01:00I've Got Einstein on my Mindby Jim PurdyListen to ...I've Got Einstein on my Mind<BR/>by Jim Purdy<BR/><BR/><BR/>Listen to me one and all, Oh dear,<BR/>For bad news I bring, The End is Near.<BR/><BR/>In the UK, the Daily Mail tried to clue us in,<BR/>That those mad scientists are going to do us in.<BR/><BR/>Yes indeed, they have published a news article<BR/>Warning us of a runaway sub-atomic particle.<BR/><BR/>The Large Hadron Collider is to blame,<BR/>And our universe will soon end in flame.<BR/><BR/>Oh man, the fireworks will be spectacular,<BR/>It'll be so big, I won't need my binocular.<BR/><BR/>As the end nears, some may grieve and mourn,<BR/>But I'll enjoy the show, just eating my popcorn. <BR/><BR/>Someday I'll entertain grandkids with the story I'll tell,<BR/>Oh. Wait. I guess I won't have any grandkids, oh well.<BR/><BR/>In college, we laughed at those physics dorks,<BR/>Always talking about their tachyons and quarks.<BR/><BR/>Yes, soon the world will be gone, we'll be no more,<BR/>Thanks to guys named Fermi, Heisenberg and Bohr.<BR/><BR/>So, as I await the end of all mankind,<BR/>I've got Albert Einstein on my mind.jimpurdy1943@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12974301744118775363noreply@blogger.com
