My quibble is that I think background radiation can be essentially non-existent or it can be negligible, but I boggle a bit at saying it is 'essentially negligible'. As to the hunt for wimps, perhaps the theoretical scientists could look among their own ranks, since if I remembver those from school headed toward that profession, 'wimp' comes to mind....

Yeah, none of the theorists I know are really wimps, the ones you saw leaving school must have been the ones that never made it.
Do check out my latest article on Gran Sasso - the world centre for wimp hunting, now in peer review - http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A594957.
