Oh, I do find this exciting. Very much so. I was objecting to the annoying newfangled use of "epic".

Yeah, that is a bit excessive, I'm moderately indifferent and I'd say the feeling right now is "Oh, good, nice experiment" not "Wow! Behold!", nothing very epic, not at this stage anyway.


You misunderstand. I am objecting to that use of the word. The "wow, epic". If I did use that word like that, I would probably find it appropriate. But I get peevish about it.

So cool. (And part of the "epic" is that it took 47 years to finish) - 07/05/2011 04:36:41 PM 472 Views
That would make the experiment epic, not the result - 07/05/2011 04:38:04 PM 454 Views
