Very interesting that a single bird could cause such a problem. Can't wait until they get it up & running. Am looking forward to reading the results.

You can go to Wikipedia and type in Hardon Collider in the search box and it will bring up everything about it.I know you won't like what you read about this device because it is purpose is to recreate The God Partical.To find out what The God Partical is go to search again and well you get the idea.I hope this satisfies your curiosity.

You didn't catch my risque pun. I deliberately misspelled it. I said Hardon (what a man gets), not Hadron.
