Quote of the Day,

Just to show you the hazards of practicing science, this note from the Fermilab Tevatron Accelerator Division Update Log:

"At 1:24 AM, Operations reported a raccoon attack on the Linac gallery. It seemed to be a coordinated effort. Fortunately, by 1:53 AM, a joint force of operators and Pbar experts managed to drive the raccoons out of their hastily made fortifications. Then at 4:18 AM, the raccoons made what some thought to be a counter attack on the Division Headquarters, but others believed it to be only a simple reconnaissance incursion. No raccoons were either injured or captured during these encounters. Operator losses were low."

The boys at the Tevatron Main Control Room, who apparently have all the fun, have warned us to be on our guard.  We'll be keeping an eye out...
