What is special on October 17, 2008

Thanks to change in shifts, I’m now working early I now check in to office at 7.30 AM sacrificing sleep and health. I’m not complaining, nor am i going to discuss it. I don’t want to turn the blog into ‘Bridget Jones Diaries’. Anyways, Why are we discussing October 17,2008?? It is not the end of the world! Please stop thinking about LHC. Hmmm.. Can’t get your mind off it, can u? Wait, yes! Before we even start discussing the topic, Here is a forward email that i received this morning.
