Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
I absolutely agree with you, Chris. Physicists have no reason to assume energies beyond those of cosmic rays are safe. Fortunately, I don't think we're going to surpass nature in our lifetime.
I believe my first forum post also dealt with that issue.

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
Those, who understand Russian, can hear me at BBC (Russian Service).
Here

there is my dispute with Nurgaliev.
It’s pity, but the second part of my talk was not included in the radio-program.

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
Since we haven't heard from Ivan in almost 6 months, what do you think has happened to him?

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
I think he is enjoying his life and has realised there is nothing to worry about

Or else the guys from the booby hatch caught him and he is now resting comfortable in a padded cell without any connectivity to the internet.

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
We could think that or maybe just maybe he did disappear into his own magnetic hole

Am I the only one that kind of misses Ivan? He was always fun to have around.

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
This article made me think of Ivan, as he made some serious predictions:
Prophecy Fail
What happens to a doomsday cult when the world doesn't end?

For those not waiting for the world to end in a storm of fire and light it is easy to write off the believers as deluded, but Festinger was not so wide of the mark when he suggested that we adapt to even the most unlikely of contradictions using nothing more than our methods of everyday rationalization. The faithful could just as easily be those who stubbornly stand by disgraced politicians, failed ideologies, dishonest friends, or cheating spouses, even when reality highlights the clearest of inconsistencies. Armageddon is unlikely to arrive this weekend, but most of us have lived through it many times before.
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your own living room.

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
Why don't you take a trip to beautiful Ukraine and go to Ivan's hut to figure that one out. I bet he'll be delighted to see you.CharmQuark wrote:Do you think he is ashamed to come back because he was so wrong?

Re: Several biggest errors of particle physicists.
Well I guess my prayer that Ivan was locked up in a padded cell has not been answered after all. So sad that we have to put up with his drivel once more.
