Large Hadron Collider … We Could Have Had This …

Wait. And this has to do with Angry Birds how exactly?
I actually in my journeys as a PR person/magazine writer for a university wrote back in 2007 about the Higgs boson and a professor who was doing computational physics about it. I can post a link in the sandbox on the Book of Faces if so desired.

They used Comic Sans for the PowerPoint slides. COMIC SANS. Font geeks the world over go into mourning. If ever an occasion screamed out for Helvetica, this was it.

CERN physicist Brian Cox is also a former keyboardist for Jimmy Page.

Did Brian Greene or Stephen Hawking comment on all this?
