Useful Gifts for CERN Researchers
Some time ago, I posted advice for the CERN guys in Lessons Learned From Gordon Freeman. It seems the Redditers have gone a few steps better, actually shipping essential equipment to CERN. The kit includes a crowbar, a training headcrab, and a copy of the Half Life Strategy Guide (follow the link for pics). They included a note, “Get this to Gordon Freeman. He’ll know what to do.” One of the CERN people, AlpineKat, promised to send pics of the gear in use. I suppose references to Gordon Freeman in relation to CERN will go on for a while yet. h/t to Steve Streeting.
Oh, and if you’ve never heard of AlpineKat, the Reddit blog contains the second reference I’ve seen to her this week (the first being over at Pharyngula). Specifically to her hit rap vid (if the embedded video isn’t working for you, follow this link to see it):
