So the boys up at CERN have finally turned on and mildly tested the potentially earth-destroying Large Hadron Collider, and thankfully we’re still here. Several (read MASSES OF) people are concerned that the LHC could be the threshold for the events starting in Half-Life 1 to unfold. So much so, in fact, that web news site reddit.com has taken it upon itself to send CERN a package containing a crowbar, Half-Life strategy guide, headcrab plushie, and a note reading “Get this to Gordon Freeman. He’ll know what to do.”
Some astute members of the Internet community have discovered that Gordon Freeman does, in fact, work at CERN, as is proved by this photo:

What makes this an even chillier reality is that fact that another familiar face has been spotted:

It seems as though Valve was just in time to provide a suitable training platform to prepare the world for these events. God help us all.
