The Last Days of the Tevatron

The press has been commenting on the imminent shutoff of the Tevatron.

Nature; DeKalb Daily Chronicle, National Public Radio.

Here's a Tevatron timeline and Fermilab's plans for the future.

Here's a rundown of notable physics results from the Tevatron's years of operation (but I'm sorry to see the tau neutrino omitted from this list).

I understand the U.S. House of Representatives Science, Space and Technology Committee will visit Fermilab next Wednesday and hear testimony.
