"Waiter! There's a quark in my soup!"
From the Mad Scientists file (via the BBC)...
The Large Hadron Collider has successfully created a "mini-Big Bang".This won't end well. Big Bangs never do. But you can't expect a bunch of lab geeks with a Large Hadron to get that, can ya?
Said David Evans from the University of Birmingham: "At these temperatures even protons and neutrons, which make up the nuclei of atoms, melt resulting in a hot dense soup of quarks and gluons known as a quark-gluon plasma."

My mind went down the toilet from that point on.
Then you finish it with Plasma?
I love me some super-science geeks!

"a hot dense soup of quarks and gluons known as a quark-gluon plasma."
With which one does what, exactly? Create a star? the primeval "ball of swirling gasses?" a proto-amphibian looking for some scrap of land to climb up on and start becoming a primate?
Or does one put it in a bottle and age it in a cool environment until it develops an "ostentatiously rich and luxuriant bouquet with flavors of caramel, current and cassia and a finish of strawberries"?
