GENEVA : THE $6.5 billion machine designed to recreate the conditions present at the beginning of time had to be switched off after a bird dropped a “bit of baguette” into it, causing it to overheat.
As a result, scientists at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland had to postpone their plans last week to emulate the universe’s Big Bang.The European particle physics laboratory near Geneva launched the LHC in September last year. Physicists hoped to prove the existence of the Higgs boson, or God particle, which gives matter in the universe its mass.
But the LHC, which when running will collide protons travelling at 99.9 per cent of the speed of light, has been out of action since a helium leak caused it to be shut down nine days after its start-up.
The bird dropped bread on a compensating capacitor – where the mains electricity supply enters the collider – cutting power to the LHC during a test run.
This LHC project is getting seriously weird.
A terrorist attack setup by the French no doubt.
LOL
My question was the bird from the future, and was it coming back in time to sabotage the collider in the past.
God is trying to protect us from a giant Darwin Award event.
Like leaving the extra flux capacitors unattended, you never know what is going to happen next
6.5 billion spent on it, but somehow birds can crap into it & shut it down.
The end is near if a piece of bread jacked up the system.
Pretty soon they will run out of excuses for spending all that money and not making this POS run.
I recollect a seagull recently shat on the nose of the shuttle and almost aborted a lift off.
From Different Strokes:
You know that auditorium I’m building for you?
Do you want it to have a roof?
a couple of guys from some head shop in parma musta built this thing..
$6.5 billion and some water, yeast flour and salt killed it..
Cripes! Just give it up. It should be pretty clear that at this point it is just too damn complicated to even work. It’s just a big waste of money.
FOOLS! It was the holy spirit in the form
of a dove! That Annihilatrix is an abomination to God.
I wonder when the people providing the cash to build and run this thing will start firing people and black balling them?
The bread crumb attained a speed equivalent to 37.8% of the speed of light. When found it was observed to be perfectly toasted. Plans are under way to attempt the acceleration of an entire slice of bread with butter.
Even if the slice experiment fails, the record for the highest velocity achieved by baked goods has been broken.
[lol. When will they be ready for marmalade? 🙂 – Ed.]
They HAVE to rename the “Butterfly Effect” now…
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
Do not accelerate marmalade!
The sugar content of marmalade is capable of storing lethal amounts of energy. Even the comparably gentle heating caused by a microwave oven has caused thousands of people to appear at emergency rooms saying “Mamawade burnt the woof of my mouf!”
8oz. of marmalade accelerated to 10% of the speed of light would contain enough energy to power Enid, Oklahoma for 7.3 years.
If you must accelerate marmalade,tie a string to the container, go outside and swing it around your head for no more than 24 minutes.
Complete waste of money.
They keep fubaring the LHC because they know recent new data requires “Modern science” to completely rewrite the “standard model”, the laws of physics and the laws of conservation.
Einstein is the indirect cause of humanity not progressing in the sciences for the past 80+ years
The Mirror Image Rule applies.

This is the machine which will invent time travel…..(and this is what they are trying to do, but won’t tell you)…….Time travellers exist today (UFO’s) and are causing the world to become what it is…BAD! And, your tax dollars are paying for it.
