- Brizzyce, on 02/10/2009, -1/+51Rise and shine, Mr. Freeman...
- Sean42, on 02/10/2009, -0/+34Yes, there is a direct correlation with the LHC and economic meltdowns.
Everyone learns this in Econ 101. - serif69, on 02/10/2009, -1/+33Just in time for everyone to recycle the same jokes we already heard the first time they started it up.
- inactive, on 02/10/2009, -0/+24That was funny the first 249082340 times it was posted on previous articles, it isn't any more. Time to move on...
- andyb747, on 02/10/2009, -7/+29didn't the last time they started it the economy started to unravel?
- Bbanda, on 02/10/2009, -3/+21These delays are killing me I need advancements in science NOW! This has got to be one of my favorite experiments though, well done for keeping the project moving forward without much flack from the community.
- voldron, on 02/10/2009, -2/+20Rise and shine...Not that I wish to imply that you have been sleeping on the job. No one is more deserving of a rest, and all the effort in the world would have gone to waist until; well lets just say your hour has come again. The right man in the wrong place, can make all the difference in the world. So wake up Mr. Freeman. Wake up and smell the ashes.
- nullcodes, on 02/10/2009, -0/+15Although a reprieve, ultimately this can't be good for hadrons.
For all they do to keep the Universe functioning, this is how we reward them? - Kragnerac, on 02/10/2009, -6/+20Grab your crowbars and gravity guns! Here come the HEADCRABS!!!
- bbjohnnyt, on 02/10/2009, -0/+12If they run it in reverse, would the economy improve? It's worth a try.
- boner79, on 02/10/2009, -3/+12blue balls!
- bobjohnsonmilw, on 02/10/2009, -4/+13Just hurry up and destroy the planet already!!!! I'm sick of going to work!
- braja, on 02/10/2009, -4/+12I predict a meltdown on Dec. 21, 2012.
- wifirewire2, on 02/10/2009, -0/+7hadron sympathizer!
- Darrelc, on 02/11/2009, -0/+7time generally moves forward
- MJPana, on 02/10/2009, -0/+6can we do the first tests with some bank CEOs inside as first hand witnesses to the explosions?
pretty please... - sorenchr, on 02/10/2009, -0/+6Im assuming you are trolling
- Zpanzer, on 02/10/2009, -0/+5best game intro ever.
- sorenchr, on 02/10/2009, -0/+5You should go into comedy
- SmartedPanda, on 02/10/2009, -2/+7They're gonna eventually fully power it around 2012.
- themastersb, on 02/10/2009, -1/+6I'm expecting it to get delayed further until it finally does start around December 2012.
- lilhelper, on 02/10/2009, -3/+8CRAB PEOPLE!!... CRAB PEOPLE!!..
- vilago, on 02/10/2009, -0/+4i have to agree with myran. the ***** is getting old...
- wifirewire2, on 02/10/2009, -1/+5LHC > you
- jonesyno, on 02/10/2009, -2/+6taste like crab, talk like people
- Ttech2, on 02/10/2009, -0/+4anyone else notice that the date keeps going later and later?
- dafragsta, on 02/10/2009, -1/+5Oh, I misread it. I thought it said Large Hardon Colider.
- inactive, on 02/11/2009, -0/+3DERP DEE DERP A 2012
- ldailey06, on 02/10/2009, -0/+3all the effort in the world would have gone to waist...
interesting interpretation. - bffoley, on 02/10/2009, -0/+3Oh great, so around July digg will be flooded with more ***** LOL LHC WILL KILL US stories?
- pintocat, on 02/10/2009, -0/+3All hardon jokes aside I'm pretty excited... I feel like the golden age of science and discoveries is almost gone and this is welcome news.

there you go. hopefully, you wont be thinking so much about it anymore. - Ramble, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2They're not looking for another quark - they're looking for the Higg's boson. The accelerator itself doesn't just run at 14 TeV all the time, the energy can range from zero up to 14 TeV.
- inajeep, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2trolling poorly I might add.
- SmartedPanda, on 02/10/2009, -2/+4It's not OUR money, unless you're a European citizen.
- RobotBuddha, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2Blah blah blah, Mr. Freeman.
Need more of that game, now. - Jetstreamer3, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2that was the hardest ive laughed in a long time...
- AmazingSteve, on 02/12/2009, -0/+2Just make sure you have your towel handy and for God's sake, DON'T PANIC!
- inactive, on 02/10/2009, -1/+3Here's a summary of what's occurring inside the LHC http://www.theonion.com/content/node/67259
- kitsua, on 02/11/2009, -0/+2Exciting News: LHC startup approaching, again!
Tedious Facepalmage: Moronic Digg comments, again!
eg:
Comment 1: We're all gonna die!!!
Comment 2: Hee Hee, Large HARDON Collider, ROFL!
Comment 3: It'll start on Dec20, 2012
Comment 4: OMG, We're ALL GONNA DIE!!!11!!!
Comment 5: Did anyone else read it as large HARDON collider?
Comment 6: I'm betting it will start on Dec20, 2012
Comment 7: But will it play Crysis?
Ad nauseam... - wilhoitm, on 02/11/2009, -0/+1Aliens are going to show up and shut this thing off in 2012. It could actually disrupt the Space Time Continuum, we are not the only ones at risk!
- Ramble, on 02/11/2009, -0/+1Goes up to 14.
- museamongmen, on 02/11/2009, -0/+1Exciting! This behemoth may revolutionize our understanding of our world.
More like will? - shylove, on 02/11/2009, -0/+1What if you run hadron into the skirting protons??? It could cause a tremendous Hadronache!!
I suppose only your Hadron would know for sure!
OMG what if the physicists got the spelling all wrong and meant for the "R" to be before the "D" and just wasted all of their time!!! And there are no black holes around to be found. - BoneheadFarker, on 02/12/2009, -0/+1Damn...mine only goes to 11...
- haydenk, on 02/10/2009, -0/+1It's gonna happen eventually. Not like you'll live forever or anything.
- adkenc, on 02/10/2009, -0/+1yes, but no more from the LHC than from marijuana.
- Specializedone, on 02/11/2009, -0/+1Science is about to get an upgrade. The golden age was it's infancy. I'll be one of the first to welcome you to science here in the next decade which is going to put the "golden age," as you put it, to shame.
