Yes, but it probably wouldn't be very good. Unless the Higgs God (or is it
the Higgs Demiurge? Anti-Higgs God?) intervened to make it wildly successful
as a means of stopping the LHC once and for all....

I do find this fascination with stories about quantum theory to be ...
fascinating. Meta-fascinating, I guess. It seems to me that people are
fascinated with something quite other than what the theory's actually about.
All these personifications of the concepts involved -- doesn't that make
anyone uncomfortable? It makes my freaking head spin. We might as well be
talking about angels -- I suspect it would have as much bearing on the
actual physics involved.
