I thought all the pork physics was dead, but this Homestake thing still lives. Apparently they are just mucking about now, scratching at the rock, but there is a big promise for something like the Sudbury Neutrino lab. Anyway, it's interesting to read, but I doubt it will survive the long term, especially when they have to live hand-to-mouth from the US Congress. Something like the big plans to put seismometers everywhere (woooooo -- SPLAT!)
Still, I understand some of the more glamerous big science projects survive...
