Maybe It Wasn't All That Far-Fetched

A few weeks ago, I was laughing at the notion that Nature would send ripples back through time to stop the re-creation of the God particle by the Large Hadron Collider.

Then, this happens.

Come on! A bird dropping a baguette can shut down this doomsday device? Who designed this thing? Dr. Evil?

Events like this are what the term "epic fail" was invented for.

The theory is beginning to sound more and more plausible...
