Subject: Two Trillion events reached by the Test4Theory BOINC-CernVM project     !!!

Dear all,

Today we reached the total of 2 Trillion events simulated since 2011 by
Test4Theory volunteers for the CERN PH-TH project MCPlots.

We just announced this on the Test4Theory project News forum, and thanked
our volunteers, but maybe a wider announcement would be in order? For
example, back in September 2013 when we passed the 1 trillion mark, a lot of
tweeting was done and CERN published an excellent article about the project:
http://home.web.cern.ch/about/updates/2013/09/crowd-sourced-computing-platfo
rm-reaches-one-trillion-events . And since then most of the LHC experiments
have started BOINC-CernVM projects.

Anyway, please feel free to forward this message as appropriate.
Best wishes and thanks to all those who have helped to achieve this result,


Ben and the Test4Theory team

Yeah, maybe, tho' I was looking for a response from the crunchers. :-)
Just had a two-day meeting of the UK institutes in our experiment; heard a number of interesting items I wasn't aware of before. This could be an interesting year for LHC!
