Gotta love this part of the article:
It would mean that two beams of protons would be travelling in
clockwise and counterclockwise directions at 99.99 per cent of the
speed of light, within feet of Circle line passengers stuck in
perpetual immobility.

However, health and safety advisers to London Underground are
understood to be concerned about the proposal, and have raised the
prospect of a mini black hole being created at Westminster when the two
proton beams collide to recreate the conditions of the Big Bang.

No - that's for real. They are hoping to isolate the elusive commuter
particle. It will be a real test for the Boron Overdrive Relative
Intensifier System...

OK, well how about this:
...FLAC has become a become a sort of default standard for
Audiophiles(it doesn't sound as good as .WAV but it's close, especially
when encoded on a good ripper such as EAC)
