The case number is "D00-0001". I suspect that the "00" is the last two digits of the year, and "0001" is a sequence number in the year. If so: 1) Why build a Y2.1K bug? These early decisions are, well, historic. They may very well outlast us. 2) I'm cynical enough to think that 9999 decisions per year might not be enough.
Maybe it's in hexadecimal......Then at least it's up to Y2.(FF)K compliant!
According to the TBTF log, a neutralino is it's own anti-particle, which means that they destroy themselves upon contact and emit a gamma ray. If there is approximately 1 of these WIMPs per teacup-full of space, why haven't we seen these gamma rays from random collisions? And it seems that through random chance, the dark matter in the universe would be slowly disappearing (unless they're being formed all the time). Granted, they're tiny and weakly interacting, but still....any thoughts?
Can someone tell me if I understand this correctly.

It's got to be accurate...didn't you see all of the pretty pictures? I'm convinced....

The problem is that it might not be possible to interact with them....but cool idea anyway.....
