Tour of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the straight-and-narrow dept.

Thomas Hawk writes "Last month Robert Scoble and I were able to do a video/photo shoot of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) with SLAC Emeritus Bebo White. SLAC is both the longest and straightest building in the world and is the home of three Nobel Prizes in physics. There is also a video tour available; part one and part two."

  1. Worst video? by Windrip · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Part II is 7:44 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

    I cannot believe these guys had an insider tour of SLAC and they post cheesy tourist shots of a FUCKING COOLING TOWER!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No wonder Engineering/Physics &c suffers in this country.

    Oh, and I also resent Bebo's comparison of chemistry to postage stamp collecting. But at least he has earned his "I'm a HEPP*" stripes.

    *High Energy Physics Prick

    of course HEP also means How Easily Phooled...
