Some impressive names there. Anyone contemplating going- I'd book up. If something big breaks on the CERN Cloud Experiment, and there are strong hints of that on Calder's blog (See sidebar - I strongly recommend you read the recent comments on his current blog), it will be a historic opportunity to hear Svensmark.

Nigel hasn't done a blog for some time because he's working on something big. I, like most of his regulars, can't wait to see what it is.

He has comments below his blog!
Apologies Pointman
Including yours!
@Pharos
Like I said there, I hope whatever he's beavering away on is a blinder!

The German Greens in parliament were going after Climate Change deniars... (the above and Singer particulary)
