The LHC created a higgs boson by colliding protons. This Chinese collider is planned (according to TFS) to collide electons and positrons. IANAPP but I am not sure that would create a higgs boson. However colliding an electon and a positron would create energy )matter and antimatter) probably in the form of gamma rays. Whereas colliding protons and antiprotons will give of some energy in the form of neutrinos
In fact electrons and positrons are Leptons, so wouldn't this be called a Large Lepton Collider (LLC)?
You've still got to convert that steam into electricity, presumably with a turbine. so what is the overall efficiency? And do you get bits of graphite and carbon foam gumming up your turbine?
The early A2000 had bugs, but the B2000 was a great machine. Very upgradable.
I had one from early 88 until I left the country in july 2002
eventually I had a GVP '030 board in the CPU slot, with 12 megs of RAM, running the SCSI hard drives (biggest was 1 gig) and a CDROM, a flicker fixer in the video slot, and a GVP I/O card with faster serial ports (to run the BBS) and an extra printer port. THe original parallel port was used to PARNET to the A1200
"Exercise should be fun - you just need to find a sport/activity that you enjoy enough so that it doesn't seem like a chore."
Exercise that has a reason is good. Walking or cycling as a form of transportation (like to/from work or the shops) is a good example, plus you save on CO2 emmissions and cost of gasoline. Of course cycling may not be possible in winter if you live in a northern state, but walking should be. Of course if you live too far away from your work maybe you could just walk part wayu and use public transport for the rest.

The last letter in the English alphabet is a Zed
They would just rename it in the German speaking market
Which Hebrew? the ancient language that was used in The Bible, or the language used in Israel today?
with a 'flock of birds' CPU cooler?
Somehow I don't think it would be as effective as liquid He
is Richard Keil still alive?
or is it spelt Kiel
Could such a planet be habitable?
I'd always thought it would be too hot for (life as we know it, Jim)
How about some comparisons with other professional sports?
Moas weren't carnivores
The Maoris ate them, not the other way round.
Vote out the scumbags at the state capitol that passed such a law

Don't we have to wait til Bridget Anne Kelly or David Wildstein publishes their memoirs?
So thats whats gonna be in FF33, which is 2 versions from now.
FF31 has just been released AFAIK
So whats new (or broken) in FF31 - should I upgrade from FF30 ?

We should give some lifeform a break

Are they from Harry Potter, LOTR, or Anne McCaffreys books?
Most military assets are not in geostationary orbit. You get a better view from closer up, and you move around to cover more area.
Geostationary orbit is mostly for communications.

Thats called tthe autobahn over there, and at 150km/hr everyone else passes YOU
"4) Happier plants since they need CO2
But plants don't vote. "
And I am sure plants in Australia don't want it any hotter. Neither do the animals living there. But they don't get to vote either.
But the Antarctic area claimed by aussie will become habitable eventually
