What an overload we had with the 10 August switch on at the LHC. My favourite radio station, BBC Radio 4 ,was trailing it ad nauseam in the week beforehand.
So why all that fuss about a test run? I suspect given what has happened in the last week they had some doubts about the machinery working properly and this was the event likeliest to go without major problems.
Does anyone doubt CERN have spin doctors on the case? There was even a rap video on Youtube to get the appreciation of the kidz.
As it is everything is going into mothballs until Spring so we can expect little attention to be paid to the problem by the public and press until next February.
Meanwhile Walter Wagner battles on in court, trying to get the world to just stop and THINK a bit more about this.

- Wish I got to the theatre more often. Tends to be about once a decade. Also reading, who has time these days? I continue to believe that there are too many sheep among all classes of people, including the cleverer more educated ones. When will people learn not to pass on fake news stories?
