    Real Scientist and Engineer Humor: @CERN does standup! #pauto #STEM

    Jan. 1, 2000

    Engineers and scientists at CERN, home of the Large Hadron Collider, the Higgs Boson (the God particle), and the World Wide Web aren't always known for being really, really funny guys and gals. Tonight they plan on changing that.

    From the Guardian.com:

    "Despite the one about the Higgs boson that goes to church (you can't have mass without him) and the atom certain it lost an electron (it's positive), physics isn't exactly renowned for its jokes.

    "However, the Cern laboratory in Switzerland is to host its first standup comedy night on Friday night with six research scientists taking to the Large Hadron Collider facility for a different kind of spectacle. The show will be broadcast online."
