Could the Hadron Collider interfere with our perception of 'reality'?

LOL!

That was quality. Good luck, Sir.

Thanks, man!

She knows about Advanced Physics by osmosis.

I can tell... She is interfering with your reality!

The best of luck with her. :-)


As for CERN & al., I simply want to know why the inconsistent PR managing on their part.
I am not concerned about the thingy itself (far from it) - but I would like to be able to make my own decision whether I should be or not.

I noticed exactly the same. It's poor, isn't it? I'd start laughing but this really might not be a laughing matter. I did find on CERN's LHC site a text saying they're scheduled for an August start, now. But clarifications on the delays are vague to non-existant.

The most irritating aspect of this paltry news "campaign" is the fact that they're trying to make it appear as if everybody - except for those who gave forgotten about the HC altogether - were "concerned", "afraid" and what-not (every other news item from that list mentions the "doomsday scenario") - when in reality people would just like to know the TIMELINE of the experiment and the reasons for the delay.

By doing that - essentially, laughing it off - they hope to shift the attention of the media away from the timeline.

Why?
That's what I would like to know.

As to the "test": good find!

Anyone get the feeling that they screwed up royally today? The world just doesnt seem right at all atm.

We don't know that's what happened. But it is strange that so many people are experiencing things as being "off" these days.

The person who wrote that first post (the quote in the first message) maybe knew something. Or maybe he was just a crank. Who knows.

I have an interesting observation/question...
Where exactly is the CERN Hadron Collider?
Is it in or around the same area where all of the recent UFO sightings are happening in the UK daily? I've noticed a huge leap in the amount of activity in the UK regarding UFOs. If CERN is near, could it all be related?

LHC is loacted in Geneva so very unlikely to be the reason for the increase in UK UFO activity

I am not even sure I believe in UFOs, but theoretically it *could* be the reason. (For example, if UFO are interdimensional phenomena, as somebody said.) Don't forget, the Earth is a very small rock.

Any news on this?
Is it on? Is it not on?

It's not on quite yet, they're still testing the sectors to make sure that all the parts work. It's supposed to be fired up fully for the first time in the beginning of August, just a few short weeks away.

Thanks for the answer!

(How come you know so much about it? )

Anything that might punch holes in the fabric of reality, or could possibly create black holes that may devour the Earth is something I think merits keeping an eye on. Besides, I have a deep fascination with quantum physics, and if they can prove the "God Particle" exists, it would explain a whole lot about the nature of reality.

I keep an eye or two on those things myself, LOL.
But yours is unusually keen.

It would explain a lot even if they don't.

Thanks again.
After reading an incredibly stupid thread about... eh, never mind, I was just about to return to the lurkdom where I came from.
But this was definitely worth a visit, even if is the last.
