Hackers penetrate Hadron Collider network
September 14, 2008 - 9:21AM

Hackers claim they have broken into the computer system of the Large 
Hadron Collider, the mega-machine designed to expose secrets of the cosmos.

A group calling itself the Greek Security Team left a rogue webpage 
mocking the technicians responsible for computer security at the 
giant atom smasher as "schoolkids", The Times and Daily Telegraph reported.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or
