I know, I know, more on the LHC

Since it got buried in a rather serious comment thread, I wanted to repost cazrolime's open letter to the CERN folks, and 'sign' it, too. Because I completely agree:

CERN
End of the World Laboratories
Geneva

To whom it may concern,

It has come to my attention that you are planning to turn on a very large and ominous-sounding machine designed to replicate the conditions immediately following the Big Bang. On behalf of several concerned parties who believe that this may cause unpleasant side-effects including destruction, widespread death and nose-bleeds in those under forty, I would like to request written confirmation that this machine will not in fact destroy the universe.

Should this unwanted scenario come to pass, you will be receiving a follow-up letter and perhaps even a petition.

Yours sincerely,

cazrolime

Aaaaaaand, we even have sub-atomic plushies!

...They are the most adorable things I have seen in my entire life. Heck, if those things come and eat us all, I might downgrade my complaint to a mere disapproving shake of the head.

I may need to make me some of those... :D Plush makes everything better. Heck, even the stuffed common cold isn't annoying at all!
