Particle physicists were thrown into a bustling foray of otherwordly passion this week when scientist Arnold Beckersmith III discovered a hitherto undetected quantum building block with a penchant for good lovin'. Mr.Beckersmith was working with particles accelerated to velocities approaching the speed of light in order to further his 20 years of research into the thoronic make-up of quarks when the incident occurred.
"I had just monitored a shift in the nebulaic prothantularity of the accelerator's inverted mesh and was bracing myself for a collision," said Arnold,"when my mind became suddenly awash with the most beautiful sensations of passionate tenderness. It were as though a gaseous cloud of loving caresses had somehow seeped out of the machinery engulfing my entire being in wave upon wave of physical and mental ecstacy. In my reverie I was visited by a being of pure love. She spoke to me in tones which fired laser beam shivers of pleasure through every cell of my body. I was smitten as smooch."
Arny went on to describe how the being introduced herself as the very particle he had been looking for in all his years of research. The particle, now known as a 'love dot', had been waiting patiently to be discovered by Mr.Beckersmith when finally she had decided to take it upon herself to make the first move - a move so full of emotion it made Arnold's eyes change colour. She and Mr.Beckersmith are now going steady and the scientific advances spawned by their highly unusual relationship have been astounding and truly saucy. We now know that quarks are made up of three love dots; one left and two skinny or two fat and one stone cold with a cherry pip in its navel. Love dots come in three colours (red, pink and blue) and are available for therapy sessions deep within the frazz-fried circuits of your own three-billion cell bio-computer.
