Quoting: ^àTOn^ Funny, because saturday everybody is heading home, its weekend and monday is christmas. So Friday is the day .... after, the analysts need to dig through the data. :Yes: But this is normal experimental and scientific behaviour, nothing to worry here, I guess .... . An experiment can't go on forever, at one time you get to the part where things happen and produce data. |

Its because of the magnetic fields. They need to get strenghten up again. Its like a big magnet, if it is used too much, they get weak. |
