Quotes & Excerpts

[Talking about the famous catastrophic electronic short-circuit of LHC] The accelerator technicians had made a risk analysis on the joints between electrical cables and concluded that there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance of failure. The problem is that in the LHC there were a total of ten thousand joints. The vagaries of chance had conspired against them.
