Large Hadron Collider is also a cool name. Are there newer accelerators with uncool names, like "TD Bank Accelerator"?

Yeah, but that's just what it is and does. What's it do? Collide. What's it collide? Hadrons. How big is it? Large.

I like the Cyclotron so much better. What does it do? I don't fukken know, but it sounds cool as shit

Well, it's like the Terminator. What does it do? It terminates. Still a cool name.

I will always read its name as "Large Hardon Collider". Could be its porn name.
