hi, i'm twelve

so, as you may know, the large hadron collider is due to go online soon.

you may have noticed that "hadron" is one letter transposition away from "hardon".

someone certainly did. behold, the (nsfw if they object to large cartoon phalluses) large hardon collider

No lie, there was an article with "long-lived hardons" *in the title* in one of the major physics journals 20-odd years ago (my mom worked here (http://pdg.lbl.gov/) for 35 years and as a teen I occasionally did odd jobs like photocopying and organizing articles for their database).
