"In other words, it’s one of the most awesome scientific enterprises of all time, even though it looks like a monumental folly. Or else, possibly, the reverse."
"Compared with the market-driven, killer-app insta-culture of the Digital Age, the new Large Hadron Collider exists in a near-magical realm, a $9 billion cathedral of science that is apparently, in any practical sense, useless." (

Frank Wilczek calls gravity "ridiculously weak", but fails to instruct his students as to neutrino oscillations/mass discrepancies.,etc...(pseudo-academic) Frank Wilczek selling [terror-science] LHC and recently shattered baseless quantum gravity theorem:
http://mitworld.mit.edu/video/618 (note Frank's multiple-redundant-rhetorical use of the word "ante up" - et al "ponzi scheme")
Wilczek fails to mention the 2006 gravitational analogue experiment or how it implies electrical charge and/or mass create a magnetic field and/or gravitomagnetic field...

Just as a moving electrical charge creates a magnetic field, so a moving mass generates a gravitomagnetic field. According to Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, the effect is virtually negligible. However, Martin Tajmar, ARC Seibersdorf Research GmbH, Austria; Clovis de Matos, ESA-HQ, Paris; and colleagues have measured the effect in a laboratory...This experiment is the gravitational analogue of Faraday's electromagnetic induction experiment in 1831. Although just 100 millionths of the acceleration due to the Earth's gravitational field, the measured field is a surprising
one hundred million trillion times larger than Einstein's General Relativity predicts.
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 232140.htm I'm also (cernier?) certain, Frank Wilczek did not
immediately update his students as to the fact that his precious delusional quantum gravity theories have been wiped out...

Quantum gravity theories wiped out by a gamma ray burst - Oct 28, 2009
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/80bea ... ein-right/ Wilczek fails to mention, conveniently, in spite of the fact that the 2006 Martin Tajmar, ARC Seibersdorf Research GmbH, Austria; Clovis de Matos, ESA-HQ, Paris; and colleagues have measured induced gravitomagnetic field/effect...gravitational waves have not been detected yet (because Wilczek is clueless and does'nt do his homework).
"GEO600 has not detected any gravitational waves so far, but it might inadvertently have made the most important discovery in physics for half a century."
http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg2 ... ?full=trueHow, again, convenient of Frank Wilczek to omit informing his alumni that others disagree with his ponzi scheme maths...

Frank Wilczek thinks: others disagree...But the energy content of mass is, of course, only one of its characteristics. Mass also opposes attempts to change its motion and reacts to gravity. Where do inertial mass and gravitational mass come from? Like most physicists, Wilczek thinks these types of mass come along, part and parcel, with mass-energy. In other words, the Higgs mechanism explains not just the energy content of mass but all aspects of mass. However,
others disagree. "There is nothing in the Higgs' theory that explicitly says mass-energy should doggedly oppose all attempts to change its motion or that it should respond in any shape or form to gravity," says Bernard Haisch of the Calphysics Institute in Scotts Valley, California.
http://www.calphysics.org/articles/chown2007.html If not for the fact for the fact that Wilczek is trying to sell LHC, I would feel sorry for him, ergo; he is obviously an undiagnosed case of occultist-psychotic-delusional.

The theorists would keep theorizing. But without hard experimental data pouring out of the L.H.C., says Jim Virdee, a Kenyan-born British-Indian physicist with the L.H.C., then “particle physics, the whole thing, becomes metaphysics.”
http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/featu ... der-201001 Jim Virdee is incorrect: LHC already (has been)
is "metaphysics."
<pete1higgs_terror-science> Is that like madmax? <mathmax> yes i'm googlemapping you now...
