An amazing pictorial overview! The public debate concerning CERN LHC, is a healthy social mechanism, if held in rational constraint.

gorgeous pix. Note there's a bet up on longbets.org about the Collider and whether it'll destroy the Earth. A great excerpt from the Detailed Terms of the bet:

"Prediction is correct if Earth is, as a result of operation of the collider, annihilated, reduced to much smaller volume than previously, vaporized, broken into large pieces, converted into photons, neutrinos, or other radiation, converted into exotic matter, or just unable to support life."

So we'll see how things go, I guess. :)
