    That's not an answer. If you can't provide an answer, then don't. Posting a link to a definition doesnt answer the question "Are you saying that LHC is fringe science?"

    You're confusing theories with research.

    Did I hit a nerve there... How will this help the Human Race?

    Cars helped, the internet helped, modern medicine(of which going to the dentist these days is my fav) helped, agriculture helped, computers and the internet helped, renewable energy researched helps, understanding the weather patterns help......

    How does better understanding the laws of nature and physics, better my life....

    Please tell me, so I can try and one day reach a level of intelligence quotient, even remotely close to some of you, and feel good about myself and my Job I got because of that said aspect, and the Steak I am eating, while watching a documentary on the LHC....while our neighbours are starving!!!

    I think its money wasted, that could go to better use... The same way going to the moon helped find a cure for aids and cancer.... Oops im living in the future here.... Hey anyone know if they have invented a working flux capacitor, somewhere in the Swiss Alps, yet ?

    You do know the internet was developed at CERN, right? The laws of nature and physics? You mean like gravity and electromagnetism? Yeah, how'd understanding those fundamental forces of nature ever help humanity?

    Maybe if we had a time machine we could go back in time and ask Carl Friedrich Gauss how the things he was working on in the 1800's would have helped humanity? He had no idea, but without his work, you wouldn't have had a computer to be working on.

    You're taking an incredibly short-sighted view, friend.

    Why don't you ask BMW how they can sponsor the Springboks with R40mil while people are starving? Or how a baseball player can get a $275 million (over 10 years) contract while people are suffering?

    Just as an example there are boat loads of technology spin-offs from NASA alone.
