As any fule kno, all they did on Wednesday (or 10/9/8 as we write it round here) was to align things so that they can run proton beams in both directions round the LHC. They won't actually start colliding them (which is the point at which Interesting Things happen, providing you count Gathering Lots and Lots of Data for Scientists as interesting) until next month sometime, I believe.

Well, I say "all they did". I couldn't do it, and I'm pretty sure neither could Terry Kirby.
