Probably need a bit more intellectual refinement like:

"I think the internet is going to do for real, provable science, what the printing press did for Organized Religion!"

I'll send it over to the SimpleMindedStan Ministry of Serious Intellectuals for further development. Tough part is getting that bunch to log off the donkey porn sites long enough to focus on anything.

May the gods preserve and defend me from self-righteous altruists; I can defend myself from my enemies and my friends.

Always a good idea to have a native English speaker review one's paper.

In 1977 the Nobel laureate Leon Lederman published a tongue-in-cheek proposal to build a collider using existing subway tunnels in New York City. The city was suffering a financial crisis and Lederman reckoned physicists could acquire the tunnels for a knock-down price.

Lederman’s proposal has inspired Caltech physicist David Hitlin to propose building another collider to address a hot political issue of today – building a wall on the US–Mexican border. In “The Very Big ILC”, Hitlin describes how long, straight sections of the border between the states of Sonora and Arizona could blocked by a huge linear particle collider.

Hitlin’s collider would be 300 km long and could achieve a centre-of-mass energy of 5 TeV. In contrast the proposed International Linear Collider in Japan is a mere 31 km long with an initial energy of 250 GeV. What’s more, with the addition of a bit or razor wire on top, Hitlin says the structure would meet Donald Trump’s specifications for a border wall.

And what would Hitlin call the facility? The TrumpILC, of course.
Reminds me of the last-ditch effort to save the Superconducting Super Collider [SSC] project in Texas with physicists proposed renaming it to the Ronald Reagan Center for High Energy Physics a.k.a "The Gippertron".

Remarkable, given that Reagan was as popular with that crowd as a case of the clap even though he had been the one who had given approval for construction.

Well, when it comes to the definition of practical problem solvers, Shirley, Physicists must be the first group that comes to mind.......
