Also I'm interested in ITER (the big experimental fusion reactor) but I'm not holding my breath on that one. Much like fusion is the power of the future and always will be, ITER seems to always be just about ready to start.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now I'm really interested in the LHC at CERN

It'd be cool to go play with it on a weekend when it's not being used. I wonder how subatomic particles traveling at 99.99% the speed of light would affect a Peep....

Or we could put Peeps in the center of a fusion reactor!

Hmmmm. So am I the only one picturing mutant peeps rampaging throughout Switzerland?

Don't forget to factor in that the Swiss are all armed with rifles!

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DANA'S NON-ICK.

I'm going to go get ready to face the world, I think.

Are you saying that we shouldn't play God with Peeps?

The Peeps were created by man. They were created to make life easier on The European Union. And then the day came when the Peeps decided to kill their masters. After a long and bloody struggle, an armistice was declared. The Peeps left for another world to call their own. Now mankind's children are returning home!

Now that I've Googled "Peeps", you're not.

Also, Gud, your second link is broken.

I read something (I forget) about the process of discovering evidence that the expansion of the Universe is accelerating instead of slowing down. I'm currently reading a book by Brian Greene which is on string theory but has to cover lots of quantum mechanical and cosmological stuff to get there. There was another book I read recently but I don't remember what it was. I didn't think it was very good though.

Nilly, I don't know if your Google showed this, but there's a long (in internet time) tradition of subjecting Peeps to horribly cruel experiments. As well as sending them on adventures.
