Perhaps the fact that there were NO serious answers to your question, is
the answer!

And taking the implication a little further, perhaps it's a good source
of amusement!

Coincidentally, I saw one of these mythical accelerators firsthand (well,
from the 280 freeway) a few weeks ago when I was driving by Stanford.
Pretty cool looking high tech thing.
Howdy Steven,
You obviously asked the magic question to provoke such a response. Took me
a while to wrap my brain completely around those responses.. from pin
headed angels to theoretical particle welfare physics where the speed of the

One can always point to benefits.
The question is whether the benefits have/will outweigh the costs.

I guess this is just another one of those silly questions that I find
myself asking.
So now its clear.
It must be a secret antitrust initiative developed by Burger King, Wendy's

Mind you - quite what the parable has to do with angels or
pins rather escapes me. 8-)
Here you (and I) go:
"When people want to express total pointlessness, they
sometimes say a thing is as silly as "arguing over how many angels
could dance on the head of a pin."

Dearest Grimer, thank you SO much for this insightful, truly awe-inspring
answer to the valuable knowledge gained from the insights into particle
physics.
OTOH, I am ROFL and truly appreciate the parable.
It actually reminds me of the questions which I, and many others have asked
of Martin.
Brilliant kid
