Would you like a mug of hot steaming apathy to go with that bowl of pessimism, Inventor, dear?

Take a dose of reality and call me in the morning.
When they built this thing twenty years ago it was to produce anti mater, all of our energy problems would be solved, the perfect clean energy source, but it did not work. No anti mater bomb.
So this big govermnment funded science toy kept pushing, you cannot understand the science! Give us money!
Lots of money later, we are going to find the spools in string theory, wrap it up, free energy forever.
It gives me the same feeling I get from the International Space Station.
Government run science is junk.
If these old people are so bright they should be teaching those who came up after computers.
To advance science, educate the young. $4.4 Billion would go a long way in high school.
Most breakthroughs are done by people under thirty, this group is twice that, and worked their way up the funding chain.
They have produced nothing but promises, never come through, and news always proceeds another round of funding. We almost have it! Sure.
Would you fund someone seeking the key to Pandora's Box? |

So now the supercooled hadron slamming thingamajig doesn't cool right, so it doesn't work, AFTER spending $10 billion? Yep, overgrown teenagers with too much credit. Sounds like all the yuppies in the US who ran up the credit cards and took out mortgages that exactly equaled their pretax income BEFORE the rates adjusted, and now they're screwed. So we've got a hole in the ground full of magnets and really cool thingies, yeah they're really cool, but they don't cool right so we can't shoot one Kelvin temperature hadrons together, say Gunther why are you looking in the Pennysaver under appliances? Oh, we could use a cheap air conditioner right about now, don't you think, ja? Oh, and we owe 7.5 million euros, and we have nothing to show for it, no problem, now where did I put the bill from Credit Suisse?... |

What a non-event !!
If you build it, the money will be spent. Bridge to Scotty, Mister Scott to the super cooling magnet room please. The anti-protons are getting bored ....
