The start of hunting season was a success – they get a bird. What’s their next target? An airplane?

To clear things up a bit – according to CERN’s statement from yesterday (http://user.web.cern.ch/user/news/2009/091106b.html), the electrical connection that was shorted by the bread was located in an outdoor installation, so neither the bird nor the bread entered any of CERN’s buildings.
