This is an old one I have lying around from when the LHC was new and it had a public interface (it might still have it, I dunno). Noticed this one though. Seems it was out of tune at that particular moment.

Wow! You're right! I didn't even notice that. Smells of photoshop. Yeah, there's definitely something wrong there.

How about a " you've heard it in PF first":

" Watt is a unit of Power?"
"Yes. "
Anyone care to add to it?
