Wow. This press release is really wild.

“The hunt begins for dark matter…” is scary and interesting. I’m reminded of House of Leaves for some reason.

Whoa and, “We’ll address soon some of the major puzzles of modern physics like the origin of mass, the grand unification of forces and the presence of abundant dark matter in the universe.”

Does it involve the Higgs-Boson getting banned from Church?

What do you get when you cross an up quark, a charming blue quark, and a green quark that’s gone a little strange?

I don’t know either, but I’m getting a hadron just thinking about it.

This post made me laugh out loud twice. Once from Jonathan’s punch line, and once from the Wisdom quote:

“What do spinach and anal sex have in common? If you were forced to have it as a kid, you’ll hate it as an adult.”

I’m pretty sure that’s an April Fools joke though.

Primitive man, in noticing the relatively few natural coincidences in his environment, slowly developed the raw observational data out of which science evolved. The natural world, however, does not offer immediate evidence for many such coincidences on its surface (no calendars, maps, directories, or even names). But in recent years the plethora of names and dates and addresses and organizations in a complicated world appears to have triggered many people’s inborn tendency to note coincidence and improbability, leading them to postulate connections and forces where there are none, where there is only coincidence.

About The Scrabbled

The Scrabbled is a group of people blogging about and linking to all manner of things. Usually we argue and make fun of each other. Everybody knows everybody through somebody so there are no strangers here. Most of us have even met in real life! If you happen to personally know someone here and would like to start arguing with and/or making fun of someone, shoot John an email and ask to sign up. Otherwise, you're just going to have to read in relative silence. Sorry.
