I should release my paper about how I turned lead into gold. Nobody would care about that one, right?

  well, it’s already been done. (well, that may not be what’s going on in the article, but the particle accelerators have created gold… by doing their smashy-smashy thing)(I’m sure the physicists love it when we reduce decades of their work to sounding like toddlers smacking stuff together to see what happens… it’s really ~~grown up~~ serious science!)
