        Well, no surprise: the name Steven is so popular in India as well in Italy. ;) BTW: another crime of the THHB! :)

              Are we talking about the same Switzerland? The ones who hired themselves out as mercenaries ofr centuries and fenced stolen goods for the Nazis?

                        Awesome. As usual, all the people claiming that the world is going to end are early, according to the fountain of knowledge[^] today was only the first attempt to circulate a single beam. Actual high energy collisions aren't due until after October 21st. If the world is going to end, it won't be today.

                          There was a $2 million grant to examine how flies land on the ceiling. With high-speed cameras, they found out they fly normal up to it, grab on with front 2 legs, and their speed flips the arse over until the back feet grab. Wasn't that worth $2 million?
