  • LHC ??? What in the world does THAT mean ??? I get 5 or 10 emails from Non-Governmental Organizations every day, and all I ever see is: BRAC or FINCA or some other alphabetical soup that might as well be Sanskrit. WHAT IS "LHC"??? SPELL IT OUT, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE !!!

  • The LHC is what will find that

    - Each and every particle has mass.
    - Dark energy and matter YOK.
    - Higgs particle YOK.
    - If you are not afraid of embarrassingly obvious answers, rethink a basic tenet, adopt space-distance in lieu of space-time.
