Reply to: Physics is sexy

[Mich the Tester]

I am becoming very excited by the goings on at CERN. Will they prove the existence of the Higgs boson? Will they prove it's non-existence? Such an exciting time to be a physicist. Wish I'd kept it up and studied it at uni, not gone into the tedious world of minerals, rocks and fossils. Might even have been involved at CERN. I'd love to wake up every morning with a large hadron.

Talking of sexy physics; has Liz Bonnin put on some weight lately?

Am I free to determine my own will or does it just seem that way?

When did that sea change occur? I thought you just responded to changes in wind direction.

I'd imagine most of those guys there are not in it for the money and what money they do get probably means isolation from family and friends unless all your friends are already there.

It is exciting. Takes us ever closer to understanding what symmetry has to do with the whole thing and perhaps closer to answering question such as: What is the relationship between math and reality? Do we really exist? Am I free to determine my own will or does it just seem that way?

Volcanology is supposed to be sexy science, as probably discovered by a newspaper reporter.

I would have rather working on the JET project. IMO fusion is alot more useful than CERN. The sooner we can tell OPEC where to stick their oil the better.

Oi! You take that back. There's nothing tedious about a foot long turrulites.

ROFL. That's bad. Very bad.

It was a bit of a knotty problem.

You REALLY REALLY need to have a look at xhamster dot com

oh. right


thanks

I think they have it all tied up!

oh. right


thanks

Bozoes like you will end up blowing up this planet in pursued of a Nobel Prize

I love reading about these new ideas , hypotheses and theories.

where are we with string theory ? anyone have a quick synopsis

They can prove it's nonexistence, but only provide evidence for its existence, to be pedantic.

But it's there alright, at around about 125GeV, you mark my words.

Are you sure about that?
