What it Means

Wow!
The key thing that separates us as humans from other creatures is our creativity based on our natural inquisitiveness tied in with our sense of self and it’s place in the universe.
Endlessly pondering, thinking and wondering.
That’s why it’s such great news that one of the largest international collaborations is working… again. I can’t wait to see what we will find!

Dead Ideas
The LHC is working again. Who knows what we’ll find? How much has it cost? Who cares, not me?
If we don’t spend, if we don’t try and find out, if we don’t attempt to venture into strange fields, if we don’t dare to think the un-thinkable, we will be as derelict as all the people in all the religions that willingly send people off unthinkingly to their deaths over some pathetic cause, while maintaining their own particular comfy nest of power.
