They're Made Out Of Meat

I am a big dork.

I came across this really short story (like 1.5 pages), a conversation between two aliens who have discovered humanity and are repulsed and confounded by the fact that...we're made out of meat.

I laughed.

You should too.

Dr. Evil is involved in this somehow...

Check out these insane pictures of the nearly-completed Large Hadron Collider. I could try to explain what it does, but since I don't really understand it I'll just say it's an evil genius physics machine that smashes particles together and might possibly destroy all of mankind by creating a black hole on Earth. But that last part is really unlikely. And the pictures are really cool.
