Today Comrade, Einstein falls; tomorrow Climate Science!<br /><br />It was rather like that weekend when Williwatts was spell-checking his minor paper and rather grandiosely announced a hiatus in his blogging pending an important announcement.<br /><br />I don't know if anyone else checked out his site that weekend, but from the comments the more excitable of his clientele were fully expecting to be told that CO2 doesn't exist, or something of that order of magnitude.<br /><br />Desperate people are prepared to believe anything.chekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463055055404580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-16383032628562632022013-09-01T19:43:40.378-04:002013-09-01T19:43:40.378-04:00Speaking of CERN:

It was definitely a Nobel-prize-winning discovery, and I emphasize the word WAS. Because they found a fiber-optic cable that wasn't shoved into its socket all the way. When they shoved the cable all the way in, the discovery went away. Fooey!<br /><br />This explanation is very convincing, much better than the alternative, which is that the neutrinos were so hungry for pasta (they were detected in Italy) that they absent-mindedly beat the speed limit. That's the story the neutrinos told the traffic cops, who said "186,000 miles/sec is not just a good idea. It's the LAW!"<br /><br /><br /><br />Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09575837647825433144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-61551686425059631522013-08-31T21:53:44.904-04:002013-08-31T21:53:44.904-04:00All the best quondam mechanics go to CERN to bury ...All the best quondam mechanics go to CERN to bury baryons these days .THE CLIMATE WARShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02578106673226403151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-3421575646399566712013-08-31T20:13:22.919-04:002013-08-31T20:13:22.919-04:00Russell:
