Freaking amazing what people can do when they put their mind to it. Also highly shameful that its not being built at Fermilab. Cancelling BTeV in future generations will probably seem as crazy and/or stupid a move as can be imagined. The sheer amount of potential wasted boggles the mind.
For those of you who can't be brought to care, I give you the bio of the host of the film for your amusement.
