The Dirty Secrets of Your TradeSo, Television is a hot bed of lies, deceit and made up competitions. We can't say that we are that surprised... every job is full of this stuff. It's not like the newspapers currently kicking TV whilst it is down are all that innocent.
We'd like you to even things out a bit. Spill the beans on your own trade. Tell us the dirty secrets that the public need to know.

Remembered another science oneAnybody see that article on the news a few months back about how the LHC (Large Hadron Collider, a huge new particle accelerator in Switzerland) is going to be switched on soon and that it could possibly produce black holes which would suck in all the matter round about them, which of course is the earth, the solar system and so forth?
Well, the bit about producing black holes is actually quite true (according to an article I read recently).
The rest is hype though. There is a theoretical possibility of black hole-type entities being produced by the LHC but they'd immediately evaporate and do no harm whatsoever.
Not that it would really matter if it did produce a real big dangerous one anyway. We'd all cease to exist in a fraction of a nanosecond, so wouldn't really have time to consider a plan of action, nor indeed be around to lay the blame on anyone.
I also once saw a humorous mis-spelling of "hadron", which reversed the middle two letters. How I laughed.
