goodness,/talk is talking about the same thing
also Wikipedia:
"The collider is currently undergoing commissioning while being cooled down to its final operating temperature of approximately 1.9 K (−271.25 °C). The initial particle beams are due for injection in August 2008, and the first high-energy collisions are planned to take place after the LHC is officially unveiled, on October 21, 2008."

It doesn't really start doing anything interesting for a while yet.They're just turning it on to check stuff works.
The fun begins next year I believe, when they actually begin firing particles.
