As inspired by this post.

Well what happened to it? It was supposed to have been activated back in October or something but a few weeks into it the circuts malfunctioned and the thing nearly had a catastrophic overheat or something. My Physics teacher told me that it would take a few weeks for it to cool down, a few weeks to fix it and then a few weeks to restart it.

Well its been a few weeks *3 and so what happened?

Problems occurred on 19 September 2008 during powering tests of the main dipole circuit, when an electrical fault in the bus between magnets caused a rupture and a leak of six tonnes of liquid helium. The operation was delayed for several months.[48] The LHC is expected to be restarted in summer 2009.[7][8] It is currently believed that a faulty electrical connection between two magnets caused an arc, which compromised the liquid-helium containment. Once the cooling layer was broken, the helium flooded the surrounding vacuum layer with sufficient force to break 10-ton magnets from their mountings. The explosion also contaminated the proton tubes with soot.[8][49]

It takes AGES to analyse the results anyway.

You won't hear about results until they are calculated further.

the collider is in my back yard under a tarp for now... might sell it on ebay or see which network will give me the most money for an exclusive?

Love is the answer

Great!
Just in time for the eruption of Yellowstone supervolcano and since things come in 3s what will be the third disaster? Oh wait Jeb Bush will be president-elect.
