The Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, or Fermilab, outside Chicago, will hold a “pajama party” for staff members...

Somehow, this is the most frightening thing I've read about the LHC... that it will prompt a slew of nerdish pajama parties. I can picture 50 or so scientists, all wearing PJs reminiscent of that poor kid in A Christmas Story, and thinking they're cool. [shudder]
