LHC Activation

First the link
LHC Countdown

Now, the LHC is the Large Hadron Collider. This is the largest particle accelerator to date. They will be speeding particles up to energies only dreamed of before...and then smash them together. No one knows what will happen. This device will be used to simulate (we think) the conditions just after the big bang. Some are afraid it will create another big bang, mini-black hole, or something totally unknown but very destructive. Again, we don't know what will happen when they turn this thing on.

Assuming we are all still here by the beginning of next week, I'll give my preliminary review of Scott Sigler's Ancestor.

Normal post days will now be Monday. This should give commuters time to download any new and interesting podiobooks mentioned in the post, and listen to during their weekday commute. For others, it will give time to research the book, read other reviews, and get things set up for a weekend listen. See you on Monday!

PS: Quick update on Cast-A-Line, I've put out feelers for this project, and gotten a good response so far. I've got a few more emails to send before I decide to even go ahead with this project, but if I do, it should be an awesome next couple of months!
