And CMS!

I'm always amused by the ATLAS control room; it seems optimally designed to reduce communication between people...

Of COURSE !... CMS, ALICE, LHCb, LHC...

I was speaking of ATLAS working on these new pages over the last 10 days...


That is a lot of people in that room. Normally that rooom is not that full. I think they are waiting for a important event...


Different subject... From the CMS Page "gather the experts in preparation for the first physics fills of the LHC."

I think its approaching time...

betcha its gonna be 4x4

While ATLAS is providing live feeds, CMS is providing awesome live coverage..

You know.... we need both...

The need a LHC TV.... Like NASA TV.. With a commentator...
