Would you mind if I laugh?
It's slightly comical that somebody who uses internet everyday writes that
CERN experiments are useless :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet#CERN.2C_the_European_internet.2C_the_link_to_the_Pacific_and_beyond
To get beyond, research about particles physics is far from useless !
All the world of new technologies (even diagnosis and cures for cancer !)
uses quantum physics so does your computer, your mp3 player, your cellular,
your DVD player....
