I think nuclear power is a great idea, and every intelligent person knows it produces orders of magnitude less waste than conventional powering methods.
Why does Slashdot fell the need to choose quotes like this one for their article? It just feeds the fear of nuclear energy.
I'm not so sure about that. 500 simultaneous particle collisions in this instance, but in other proton/anti-proton or positron/electron colliders where there are only 2 simultaneous collisions they do several million per second. I wonder how many gold nuclei they smash per second and how this affects their "detecting work" as you call it.
If they knew that this limit was coming up inevitably due to physics, why didn't one of these storage manufacturers start working on holographic storage more seriously?

Why is the title for this article reading "Slashdot: News For Nerds, Stuff That Matters?" The search icon is a little folder.
It appears this way on the science page.
Mmm. Relative movement.
