This exercise seems like a waste of time, talent and brainpower.

Yeah, but what else are you gonna do with a $$???? billion , humongous, atom-smasher?

Using it to see if we can make a very expensive garbage disposal seems a bit of a waste.

A lot of scientists are disturbed by the fraction of research dollars being consumed by these mega-experiments too.

If they're searching for holographic noise, OK.

But if the whole exercise is to discover if the universe is a hologram, well, I think these scientists are succumbing to an all-too-common tendency these days to overreach, injecting far too much imagination into their hypotheses.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see that this new interferometer is connected to the atom smasher.
